Todays weather mimcs what we had a week ago when the polar vortex was hitting the region. It may be sunny but without many clouds to trap the infrared radiation most of the heat associated with the rays is going back into space.

Temps across the region are teetering around in the low single digits with very light winds. There may be no update for pressure from the station I'm using but I can assure you that it is still high which is causing the air to continue to be dry. There is nothing interesting happening with weather fronts currently and the jet stream is identical to yesterday.

My prediction for tomorrow is slightly warmer temps with increasing winds and dropping pressure. Don't expect anything drastic to occur. Snow shouldn't fall for a few days at least considering the low dew points we've been experiencing.
