New Round Of Snow Now Possible On Christmas Day New Round Of Snow Now Possible On Christmas Day
New Round Of Snow Now Possible On Christmas Day It's beginning to look a lot like we may be getting a new round of snowfall on Christmas.

"The snow area is going to be smaller, and at this point, we’re not going to be looking at the excessive amounts of snow that we saw with our latest storm," AccuWeather Chief On-Air Meteorologist Bernie Rayno said, "but it all depends on the strength of that storm."

Bet Against Serious Snow This Week, North Jersey Weather Expert Says Snow this week? Maybe, weather expert Joe Cioffi says -- and if so, not much around here. Monday is easily the week’s best weather day, Cioffi said, with highs in the low- to mid-50s in North Jersey and immediately to the north, and possibly as high as 60 degrees at the Jersey Shore. "Enjoy the day because the rest of the week is pretty much shot," he said. Snow could fall this week, he said, but not until Thursday, the earliest -- and not much of it. Tuesday’s temperatures should be lower, due to clouds and showers, said Cioffi, who uses several weather models. ****** ALSO SEE: La…

Not So Fast: Too Soon To Fear A Weekend Nor'easter, Weather Expert Says Folks might want to hold off on the milk and bread run in anticipation of a possible Nor'easter this weekend, a local weather expert said. "While there is a chance of rain or snow Saturday, I'm not overly bullish about it right now," Joe Cioffi said Tuesday morning. "Too may weather systems and not enough cold air could be the primary issue here." Although the weather pattern across North America appears chaotic, the Northeast should remain "relatively quiet and calm" through the work week, Cioffi said. The weekend could be close to the same, he said. If this were a typical winter, th…
