Discussion
A low-level westerly flow of air will dry us out today and bring somewhat cooler air to the region compared to the past couple of days and then even colder air will push into the Mid-Atlantic region for the upcoming weekend. By late in the weekend or the early part of next week, moisture from the southern states could advance far enough to the north to produce some precipitation around here and it could be just cold enough for some of that to be of the frozen variety. After that, a brief significant warmup is possible later next week ahead of an advancing widespread cold air outbreak that should reach us by the end of the week.
