An active weather pattern is leading to a “doubleheader” of snow in the Mid-Atlantic region with snow from one system on Saturday and snow is likely from a second system on Sunday. The accumulations on Saturday with system number one will be be primarily from northern Maryland northward with lesser chances in the DC metro region. On Sunday, a coastal storm can bring accumulating snow all along the I-95 corridor and to coastal sections of the Mid-Atlantic. This overall pattern remains very cold with bitter cold conditions expected here on Monday night, Tuesday, and Tuesday night and the possibility still exists for some extreme cold during the last week of the month…and additional snow threats on the horizon.

An Arctic air mass pushed into the Mid-Atlantic region on Thursday and it stays quite cold today with an increase in cloud cover as an upper-level disturbance heads in this direction. This system can produce some snow in the area later tonight and on Saturday morning and perhaps a mix of rain and snow on Saturday afternoon...small accumulations are possible. Another system will try to slide up along the east coast on Sunday and it can bring some snow to the DC metro region during the second half of the weekend...accumulations are possible. More Arctic air is on tap for the Mid-Atlantic region during the first half of next week with bitter cold conditions expected here on Monday night, Tuesday, and Tuesday night. The overall pattern stays very cold through the second half of the month in the eastern US and it can include some extreme cold.

This system can produce some snow in the area later tonight and on Saturday morning and perhaps a mix of rain and snow on Saturday afternoon...accumulations are possible of up to a couple of inches. Another system will try to slide up along the east coast on Sunday and it can bring some snow to the Philly metro region during the second half of the weekend...additional accumulations are possible of up to a few inches.

An Arctic air mass has reached the eastern US today on the heels of a strong cold frontal system and this winter chill will extend all the way down to the state of Florida by later tonight. Another Arctic air mass will push into the north-central US early this weekend and it’ll spread to the east coast later in the weekend. The frontal boundary zone at the leading edge of the weekend Arctic blast will act as a catalyst for waves of low pressure to form and one system can bring some snow to parts of the eastern US from later Friday night to Saturday and a second on Sunday. The second low pressure system can bring snow to unusual places in the southeastern part of the nation on Sunday, and its snow field may extend far enough to the north and west to have an impact in the DC-to-Philly-to-NYC corridor. Following the passage of the Sunday system, yet another Arctic air mass will drop south and east into the northern US on Sunday night, and it’ll put the Mid-Atlantic region and Northeast US into the deep freeze by time Monday night and Tuesday roll around. Looking ahead, numerous signs point to additional Arctic air outbreaks as we work through the last week of January and this time period could feature some extreme cold.

An Arctic air mass has pushed into the Mid-Atlantic region on the heels of a strong cold frontal passage and temperatures have very likely already reached their highs for the day. The winds will be quite strong through the day from a west-to-northwest direction making it feel even colder than the actual ambient temperatures. It stays much colder-than-normal on Friday and then an upper-level disturbance will head in this direction on Friday night and Saturday potentially resulting in some snow and/or rain to the metro region. Another system will then try to slide up along the east coast on Sunday and it can bring some snow or snow shower activity to the area during the second half of the weekend. More Arctic air is on tap for the Mid-Atlantic during the early part of next week.

An Arctic air mass has pushed into the Mid-Atlantic region on the heels of a strong cold frontal passage and temperatures will drop to the 20’s from their early day highs in the 30’s. There can be another snow shower or two during the morning hours and perhaps some graupel (snow pellets) mixed in at times. The winds will be quite strong through the day from a west-to-northwest direction making it feel even colder than the actual ambient temperatures. It stays much colder-than-normal on Friday and then an upper-level disturbance will head in this direction on Friday night and Saturday potentially resulting in some snow or snow shower activity around here. Another system will try to slide up along the east coast on Sunday and it too can bring some snow or snow shower activity to the area during the second half of the weekend.
