True winter air is returning after an unseasonably warm New Year. This will have you grabbing the hat, gloves, and winter jacket before you step out. Overnight, the feels-like temperature will range from 15 to 25 degrees in most spots, except the hill towns where it could feel as chilly as the upper single digits by Saturday morning.
The weekend will be seasonable for this time of the year, with forecast temperatures reaching the mid 30's, which is average for this time of the year. At the shoreline, you can expect a mostly cloudy Saturday and then a little more sun Sunday.

Tomorrow (Saturday) will be another windy day due to the passing of another low-pressure system in the Atlantic Ocean. Wind gusts will range from 15-30 mph tomorrow.
We've been telling you about the chance of a snowstorm, but those chances still remain low at the moment. A large, disruptive winter storm will hit much of the Midwest, Ohio Valley, and mid-Atlantic region, but then pass to our south, leaving us mostly untouched.
While we may be getting missed by a majority of the snowstorms, we will not get missed by the chilly air. Temperatures will remain slightly colder-than-average for early January, ranging from the 10's to the 20's.
