Coldest Night of the Season in New York City...

The combination of clear skies, light winds and high pressure over the Mid-Atlantic region will produce the coldest night so far this season in all five boroughs of New York City, Long Island and metropolitan New Jersey. Several locales have experienced freezing or near freezing temperatures so far this season in the tri-state area but this will be the first for metropolitan areas. The cold snap will be brief with temperatures warming into the 60s this Sunday.
