Highs will be in the 40's in the clouds, Lwr 50's in the sunshine towards the coastal plain. Most of the sun today will be found in the south...yet most should be clearing as we head towards evening.
Upper level winds from the SW are advecting a warm balmy airmass up the east coast. But cooler air is charging back into the eastern half of the country so This warm balmy air is being lifted up, cooled, condenced into steady to heavy rains which are extending from Vermont to the Carolinas today.
Clouds will be on the increase tonight. These clouds will trap in todays warmth. This along with south winds should help to keep temps pleasantly mild through the overnight in the 40's. Temps will be climbing right back into the 50's tomorrow as warmer air remains in place along the eastern seaboard ahead our approaching rainfall.
Plenty of clouds are locked in for the weekend...but southerly winds will be blowing in the feel of spring!
The snow is really winding down in intensity this morning. this trend will continue as dry air from the midlevels moves in.

Looking down the road we have been talking about a pattern change. But there still is some cold, a few clippers and a trough in place across the Northeast through next Tuesday which will help to keep New England in the Cool...but how cold will it be?
Talk about a Super Sunday! So nice outside. In fact this is the warmest we have been since January 2nd when we reached 51 degrees. Nice to finally thaw a bit. Highs today will climb to 40 to 46 degrees in the sunshine and diminishing wind behind our departing low whose low pressure has dropped down to 981 mb over Nova Scotia.
A solid .50"-1" of rain is likely and this water will easily be absorbed by the snow pack to only become heavier and add more stress to the rooftops.

SNH could see 1-2" with N. MA a coating to an 1" at best as the storm departs.

A mix of sun and clouds will fade to increasing clouds as the disturbance moves through. Upper level winds are helping to shear this apart with snow weakening over PA and NY. This disturbance will try to provide a little light snow shower activity and flurries south of the Pike for the mid-late afternoon into the early evening. Not expecting much more than a coating to 1" in places especially in CT, RI and Southeast MA...if at all as most of the snow will fall apart and stay away.

Ocean effect snowshowers for the Outer Cape could provide some minor accumulations...D-2". Significant cold air will settle into the region overnight with clear skies and diminishing wind.
