Bet Against Serious Snow This Week, North Jersey Weather Expert Says Bet Against Serious Snow This Week, North Jersey Weather Expert Says
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.

Tuesday’s temperatures should be lower, due to clouds and showers, said Cioffi, who uses several weather models. ****** ALSO SEE: La…

"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…
