A strong cold front passed through the region late yesterday paving the way for a chilly Turkey Day and the chill remains into the upcoming weekend. Temperatures this afternoon will do no better than 50 degrees for afternoon highs and will likely drop to below freezing on Thursday night and Friday night as well. Looking ahead, low pressure may ride up along a frontal boundary zone early next week and it could potentially bring a heavy rain event to the area.

A strong cold front passed through the region late yesterday and a secondary cold front will pass through later today. Temperatures tumbled in the overnight hours and will be colder-than-normal today, tomorrow, and right through the upcoming weekend. Winds will become quite a noticeable factor as well strengthening during the day and gusting at 35+mph on Thursday night and Friday. This Arctic air outbreak will set off another round of Great Lakes-effect snows and there can be a couple of snow showers that make their way across the mountains and into the immediate I-95 corridor. Looking ahead, low pressure may try to ride up along an Arctic frontal boundary zone early next week and we’ll have to watch for a threat of rain, ice and/or snow in the Mid-Atlantic region during the Tuesday/Wednesday time period.

Mild and dry conditions will be the rule for today and Friday, but big changes are coming for the upcoming weekend. Much colder air floods the region on Friday night and it will come with the threat for snow from late Friday night into Saturday morning. Winter weather will continue Sunday as well with a second round of snow possible and temperatures confined to the low-to-mid 30’s for afternoon highs.

The period between Thanksgiving and Christmas will begin with a major Great Lakes snow event from Thursday to Friday and an Upper Midwest snowstorm this weekend and it could end with a White Christmas in many parts of the country. Two of the factors that have been highlighted here, likely leading to a cold and active stretch of weather, include an unusual early season stratospheric warming event and the likely movement of a tropical disturbance into a location that favors colder-than-normal conditions across a large part of the nation. Both of these phenomena – stratospheric warming and tropical forcing – will likely lead to a “buckling” of the polar jet stream which can lead to the unleashing of multiple Arctic air masses from northern Canada into the US (with intense cold in the table), and an activation of the southern branch of the jet stream which will likely produce multiple snow/ice threats.

A strong cold front will pass through the Mid-Atlantic region later today bringing with it some isolated shower activity. Temperatures will climb to the 60’s ahead of the front, but then tumble during the nighttime hours and the rest of the week will feature colder-than-normal conditions. Winds will become quite a noticeable factor as well strengthening during the day on Thursday and remaining strong during Thursday night and Friday. This late week Arctic air outbreak will set off another round of Great Lakes-effect snows and there can be a few snow showers that make their way across the mountains and into the I-95 corridor.

Some much welcomed rain is headed to the Mid-Atlantic region for this afternoon and tonight and there can be scattered showers on Wednesday. This threat of rain comes ahead of an approaching cold front which will pass through the region later tomorrow and usher in a cold air mass for Turkey Day. A secondary cold front will pass through later Thursday and even colder air will follow for Thursday night night and Friday and the winds will become very strong throughout the northeastern states. Winds will relax on Friday night and Saturday as high pressured edges this way, but temperatures will remain below-normal right through the upcoming weekend.
