A chilly start, a sunny finish
Most people think early October mornings are still mild, but Tuesday is a jacket morning. Clear skies overnight let the day's warmth escape, kind of like leaving a window open all night, so most of us wake up in the mid 40s.
That's 5 to 6 degrees colder than normal for this date in Newark, Philadelphia and Trenton. Then the sunshine takes over, and highs climb into the low and mid 60s everywhere.
