Discussion

A warm front will push through the region later today causing afternoon and evening showers and slightly milder conditions. The rain can come down hard for a brief time late today and early tonight. A cold front will then follow closely on its heel by early tomorrow and this will generate a downward trend in temperatures as we progress from mid-to-late week. Attention turns towards the east coast this weekend as a storm should pull out of the south and amplify near the Mid-Atlantic coastline. This potential weekend storm may very well signal the start of a "colder and stormier" weather pattern that could last through the remainder of December and right into the New Year.
