Discussion

A cool front passed through the region yesterday and ushered in noticeably cooler air for today and tomorrow and an even colder air mass will arrive over the weekend. Following two dry and cool days to close out the work week, deep upper-level trof will set up early this weekend in the Northeast US and the result will be the development of a strong storm off the Mid-Atlantic coastline. Winds will increase later Saturday, temperatures will hold at below normal levels, and there will be some rain shower activity, but the steadiest, heaviest precipitation is likely to stay to our south and east as the storm intensifies off the coast. Cold pours into the I-95 corridor Saturday night once the off-shore low pressure system pulls to the northeast and temperatures on Sunday will hold in the 40's along with a stiff wind. A gradual warm up will take place in the Northeast US during the first half of next week.
