The eve before Valentine's Day has passing snow showers and cooler temperatures in the outlook. Friday night will be chilly with passing flurries.

Sun-"kissed" skies for Saturday. Afternoon highs will be a few degrees warmer than normal. Expect temperatures to reach for 45 degrees across the area.

Sunday is cloudy ahead of the nearby storm to the south. Model guidance is having a very difficult time as of Friday evening in handling the storm's path across the south. Based on the meteorological evidence at hand, it should stay south of the Outer Banks of North Carolina and continue moving out to sea and not recurving up the coast. It does not appear that this system will have enough energy to fan moisture northward toward New Jersey. Cloudy skies should be the extent of the moisture this storm pushes in the Garden State's direction.

Monday looks great. Sunshine will emerge from behind early morning clouds. Temperatures will try and get back to about 40 degrees for a daily high. Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday next week look to be the warmest stretch of weather in a month. Expect temperatures to be near 50 for all three days.
