Pleasant weather is arriving to New Jersey as highs jump to the mid-40s today and reach the mid-50s for Saturday.

It will be mostly sunny both of these days and the snow will continue to melt. Puddles will form on Saturday but then likely freeze as Sunday cold arrives. A front passes by on Sunday to bring snow flurries and breezy conditions. The flurries are from 11 a.m. until 3 p.m. and will leave a light dusting if anything. It melts away fast as the sun breaks out for the mid-afternoon. Monday will be cold and dry with an area of high pressure to our north forcing a storm to stay "south and out" away from New Jersey. Snow chances for Monday are diminishing fast! However, rain showers are expected for the midweek. Initially it was expected on Wednesday, and it still is, but it can come earlier and arrive very late on Tuesday evening. This midweek weather looks to be rain, but it is possible that it could feature a brief wintry mix.
