Sunday freeze ahead for Northeast as temperature roller coaster begins March
Old man winter makes a brutal return Sunday when temperatures will plummet back into the 30s after a week of springlike temperatures for most of the country.
Cold snap for the Northeast ahead
Temperatures have finally rebounded across the northeast as we turn the calendar to March. But our temperature rollercoaster continues as we end the weekend with an almost 30 degree temperature drop. Millions will see highs into the low 30s on Sunday.
BOSTON – Much of the U.S. has been enjoying a brief warmup as springlike temperatures were felt across the nation this week, but for millions in the Northeast and New England, old man winter will make a brutal return Sunday when those same places will feel a 25-30 degree temperature drop.
It'll lead to a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde performance from Mother Nature this weekend. Warm temperatures stick around Saturday, with many cities along the East Coast, like New York City and Washington near or above 60 degrees.
But it’s back to the winter chill just as meteorological spring arrives.

The cold air sticks around Monday for most of the region.

However, good things come to those who wait.
