afternoon hours, because we have so many cold air in the, upper atmosphere that helps produce those clouds. lets go up to mount pocono. that is not manmade snow. that is not from snow from last night. couple inches being reported, in the highest elevations of northern new jersey and carbon, monroe counties. so there it goes, certainly a wintry scene there across the poconos, this morning. yesterday, press i incredible. temperatures well in the 70's, upper 50's, close to 60's in the poconos. now we are dealing with some snow, big difference. strong cold front yesterday evening, really kick up the wind that brought that steady rain and snow into parts of the region. today we are stuck with air temperatures in the 40's. that chilly air mass sticks around for next few days, as the reason the jet stream taking a dive to the south. now we have got this cold pocket of air situated over mid-atlantic and north east. at least through the upcoming thanksgiving holiday. high temperatures running below average, leading up to thursday, and you can see that spin in the atmosphere.
