Temperature roller coaster and fall snow in the forecast for the start of November
Looking ahead to the final days of October and the beginning of November, forecasters say there are some big changes coming, as well as possible snow in New England.

00:00 Well, it felt like September here in the Northeast
00:02 with record challenging warmth.
00:03 Changes are on the way, as we've mentioned.
00:06 Bernie Rayno and AccuAir, the long range expert,
00:08 Joe Lundberg, have a closer look
00:10 as they give us a sneak peek at the next week.
00:12 Well, as we take a look at next week,
00:17 like last week at this time,
00:19 we have a very challenging forecast for the upcoming week,
00:22 but it's a forecast that's gonna have lots of changes, Joe.
00:26 Indeed it will, Bernie.
00:27 And the big headline, I think,
00:28 is the fact that we're gonna be in a big temperature roll
00:30 or colder, the coldest air we've seen so far this season
00:32 will drill down the plains
00:34 and eventually work its way to the east.
00:35 That'll be followed by a warmup.
00:37 Watch out for some snow threat
00:38 across the interior Northeast
00:40 in that Tuesday, Wednesday timeframe.
00:42 And we're still keeping an eye on the Caribbean.
00:44 Here it is, it's late October.
00:45 We're not done yet with the tropics.
00:46 Yeah, as we head into the early part of the week, Joe,
00:48 here's the big story, a lot of cold.
00:51 Yeah, a big area of high pressure
00:52 will come down into the Plain States,
00:54 drive this cold air southward first,
00:56 deep down into Texas,
00:57 but then it will eventually turn and head into the east.
01:00 As we make that transition,
01:01 though, watch for an area of low pressure
01:03 to develop somewhere in this fashion.
01:04 As it does, it taps into that cold air
01:07 on the Northwest side of it.
01:09 There's a snow threat for parts of New England,
01:10 especially the higher elevations,
01:12 even back into parts of upstate New York
01:14 and the higher ground of northern and western Pennsylvania.
01:16 Now here comes a change
01:17 as we head into the latter half of the week, Joe,
01:19 because all of a sudden the cold eases
01:23 as warmer air starts to spread into the plains.
01:25 Yep, high pressure in the Plain States moves eastward.
01:27 It's cold at night, chilly by day,
01:29 then it starts to moderate toward next weekend.
01:31 The warmth comes into the Plain States early,
01:33 but down here, some showers with an east to northeast flow,
01:36 and that suggests that in the Caribbean
01:39 there may be some bubble bubble toil and trouble.
01:41 We'll be keeping an eye on this area
01:42 for possible development
01:44 during the middle and latter part of next week.
