AccuWeather forecasts daily highs in the high 30s and low 40s, and lows in the high 20s and low 30s from Saturday through the first week of December. There's a 55% chance of snow as early as the morning of Wednesday, December 4th. However, the forecast is currently indicating mostly dry conditions.

The National Weather Service notes this cold pattern could persist well into December, leaving the possibility of snow should a weather system move in.

The Climate Prediction Center gives December equal chances of warmer or cooler-than-average temperatures. A typical freezing December could even mean a White Christmas in NYC!

• Dave Dombek (AccuWeather): Predicts cold temperatures for the first week of December but mostly dry conditions. Snow is possible if a storm system develops.
