Another bitter blast to start the workweek in Southern New England

A cold front is bringing another arctic blast to start the workweek across Southern New England.

The cold frontal passage Sunday night will usher in much colder-than-average temperatures for Monday. Low temperatures on Monday morning will be in the low 20s, with afternoon highs in the upper 20s, but it will feel like the teens all day due to the wind chill on Monday.

The coldest weather arrives for Tuesday morning as lows drop near 10 degrees in many spots with the feels-like wind chill in the single digits.

It turns a little less cold on Tuesday afternoon with highs back above freezing in the mid-30s.

Wednesday will be the mildest day of the week with highs in the mid-to-upper 40s. As temperatures climb above freezing, we could see a few light rain showers Wednesday afternoon into Wednesday evening.

A warm front will boost temperatures into the 40s on Wednesday, which means rain, not snow for Southern New England. (WJAR)

Colder temperatures return again on Thursday and Friday with highs back into the 30s.

We’ll be watching next weekend for the potential of a coastal storm trying to develop, but at this point it looks likely to stay offshore and bring minimal impacts to Southern New England. Check back for updates with Storm Team 10.
