Good morning, Fort Greene and Clinton Hill.

It could feel like mid-January as we’re getting up today, with predicted temperatures in the mid-20s. You can expect them to only rise into the mid-30s with an increasing chance of light snow around the evening commute, according to the National Weather Service. If you see any pretty views on the way home, don’t forget to snap a picture and share it on The Nabe’s Flickr pool.

Here’s more news to start your day:

Greene Grape Provisions wants to see your cooking and photography skills for its #ProvisionsPix Instagram contest. You’ve got until the end of the month to snap a shot of your best ramen dish for a chance to win a $10 store gift card. To enter, head to the store and pick up some ramen, take a photo of your dish, upload it to Instagram with the hashtag #ProvisionsPix (and don’t forget to mention @GreeneGrape), and get the most “likes” by March 31.
