Discussion
Low pressure to our northwest today will push a warm front through the area and we’ll turn milder again for the mid-week time frame. A strong cold front will arrive on Thursday and its passage will usher in a cold air mass to begin the New Year. In fact, the overall weather pattern is currently undergoing a change that will allow for more sustained cold air in the Mid-Atlantic region during the month of January and perhaps even beyond.
