Cold weekend

Happy Saturday! It's a chilly start this morning with temperatures around 30 °F throughout the North Country. For September 19th, we typically see a low temperature of 50 °F, so we're starting the day about 20 °F below normal. We saw the first frost of the season here in Middlebury, VT this morning.

For today, expect temperatures in the mid to upper 50s, with calm winds and sunny skies. High pressure remains draped over our region, providing us with the nice fall-like weather.

I'd imagine that areas will see freeze warnings and frost advisories overnight as temperatures again dip into the upper 20s in some areas. This temperature anomaly map shows just how cool temperatures are for this time of year.
