Overview
- Rain has largely moved out by daybreak in southern New England as a sharp cool-down sets in, with highs reached early and temperatures sliding through the day.
- Northwesterly winds are widespread and strong, with frequent gusts around 30 to 40 mph and higher on the mountain slopes, making it feel colder.
- Winter weather alerts remain in parts of Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine for freezing rain and snow, including a glaze to near a quarter-inch of ice in spots and upslope snow that could pile up to 12–18 inches on the highest peaks.
- Fire danger is elevated in some Mid-Atlantic locations under red flag warnings as dry air and gusty winds follow the front.
- The active pattern continues this week with a brief dry, cooler stretch before additional rain chances Tuesday and again Thursday into Friday, including the potential for a mountain wintry mix.
