Discussion
Strong high pressure just off the New England coastline has generated an ocean flow of air (low-level E-NE winds) in the region and this has resulted in clouds pushing in from the east. This rather moist flow of air will, in fact, help to keep copious amounts of clouds around the region right through tonight and temperatures will stay on the cool side as ocean temperatures are still quite chilly this time of year. A frontal system will cross the region early Saturday changing our wind direction and a new high pressure system will subsequently build into the region from eastern Canada for Sunday and Monday. Another frontal system will then approach on Tuesday bringing with it a good chance of showers for the Mid-Atlantic region. Looking ahead, it appears there will be another shot of cold air for the Northeast US as we work our way through the last week of the month.
