High temperatures for the Northeast tomorrow are showing a mix of slightly above and below-average readings.

“A cold front will move through the Northeast, bringing a shift in weather. Expect rain showers across cities like Albany and Scranton as the front advances. As temperatures drop, areas farther north, such as Syracuse and Buffalo, might see a transition to light snow. The heaviest precipitation is forecasted early in the day, leading to potential slick conditions for the morning commute. Keep an eye out for any changes, especially with the possibility of brief gusty winds during frontal passage. Temperatures will cool down by late afternoon, but skies should begin to clear heading into the evening, setting up for a calmer, cooler day tomorrow.”
