A cold front crosses the region later tonight and it will bring some shower activity to the DC-to-Philly-to-NYC corridor. Temperatures behind the cold frontal passage will not drop with highs on both days likely in the 60’s with some sun and Saturday and clouds on Sunday with the chance for rain. An Arctic cold front arrives on Sunday night and it’ll usher in the coldest air yet this season for the early part of next week and many areas will experience their first hard freeze on Monday night. The atmosphere will be quite unstable by later Monday with a vigorous low pressure system nearby in the upper part of the atmosphere. This setup could lead to some snow shower activity around here late Monday and accumulating snow is likely just downstream from the Great Lakes (e.g., western PA, western NY) and also in the higher elevations of the western Mid-Atlantic (e.g., western MD, western VA, West Virginia). Temperatures relax by mid-week, but there will be a shot of chilly air by late next week.

An Arctic air mass that had its origins right near the North Pole will invade the eastern US early next week and there will be impacts felt all the way down to Florida. This will be the coldest air mass so far this season and many spots in the eastern states will experience their first hard freeze of the fall. A vigorous upper-level low will accompany this Arctic blast causing widespread unstable conditions and the result will likely be accumulating snow across some of the higher elevation Appalachian Mountains, and just downstream of the Great Lakes in those usual “favored” areas. And given an expected widespread area of unstable conditions, snow showers are even on the table for the immediate I-95 corridor from later Monday into Monday night. Looking ahead, it doesn’t look like there will be any sustained warmup across the northeastern part of the nation following this early next Arctic air outbreak with additional cold shots to follow into mid-month.

The dry weather pattern continues across the area with no appreciable precipitation expected over the next several days. Temperatures should reach the 70-degree mark this afternoon and the breeze will be quite noticeable with gusts likely to 30 mph or so.

A strong cold front passed through the Mid-Atlantic region last night and today will feature noticeably cooler conditions and quite breezy as well. Another cold front arrives late Friday night and this one should feature some shower activity in the DC-to-Philly-to-NYC corridor; however, temperatures will actually tick up this weekend following its passage.

After a quiet day today, clouds will pick up tomorrow and there can be showers and thunderstorms from late Friday into Friday night…some of the storms can be on the strong side. Looking ahead, a cold air mass with Arctic origins pushes into the eastern states by the early part of next week following a late weekend strong cold frontal passage. Temperatures will be well below normal on Monday and Tuesday of next week and overnight lows of below the freezing mark are on the table across northern Alabama.

An active weather pattern over the next several days will feature a powerful wind event on Wednesday night across many northeastern states and then an Arctic invasion will take place across the eastern states early next week with impacts being felt all the way from Florida-to-Maine. The powerful winds on Wednesday night will be associated with an intensifying low-pressure system that forms along a strong cold frontal boundary zone, and 50-60 mph wind gusts are on the table for the Mid-Atlantic region and Northeast US…some power outages are possible.
By the end of the upcoming weekend, another strong cold front will slide across the Great Lakes and into the eastern states, and this front will be at the leading edge of the coldest air mass of the season so far. Low pressure will develop along the frontal boundary zone, and it will be supported aloft by a vigorous low which will drop south and east into the central Appalachians. This combination of a strong surface low and a powerful upper-level low will ensure accumulating snow in many areas including the Great Lakes and interior sections of the Mid-Atlantic region and Northeast US. In fact, given the high levels of instability expected around here early next week, and the well below-normal temperatures, snow shower activity is certainly on the table all the way into the immediate I-95 corridor.
