Static NE Monday

With the exception of a day here and there, the overall weather pattern will remain chilly in the northeastern United States with opportunities for snow through the end of October.
Temperatures much of this week will average 10-15 degrees Fahrenheit below normal. Typical highs in late October range from the upper 40s F in northern Maine to near 60 F in New York City and the middle 60s F in southeastern Virginia. With the wind blowing and other conditions, AccuWeather RealFeel® Temperatures will dip into the teens, 20s and 30s at times.
The pattern will bring snow showers over the Great Lakes and and may bring steady snow in parts of the central and northern Appalachians and perhaps closer to the coast, depending on the formation, track and strength of two storms.
The most significant blast of chilly air so far this season brought snow showers for the first time this autumn to many areas from the Upper Midwest to the interior Northeast this weekend.
Much of the region will get a little break from the harsh cold, wind, rain and snow showers on Monday.
A reinforcing burst of chilly air will race southeastward from north-central Canada during the first part of this week. Expect snow showers to accompany the Canadian air as it rolls from the upper Great Lakes late Monday and Monday night to the lower Great Lakes on Tuesday.
A weak storm accompanying the chilly push may garner enough strength for a general snowfall in parts of central and northern New England from Tuesday night to early Wednesday.
Another period of blustery conditions will accompany and follow the early to midweek chilly shot. While winds may not be as frisky as that of this past weekend, the air may feel and be every bit as cold.
A little lull in the winds and more sunshine may allow it to feel milder later this week.
However, it appears that the atmosphere may gear up for a large storm that has the potential to affect much of the East Coast next weekend into early the following week.
