Discussion
Temperatures will jump today ahead of a strong cold frontal system to near the 60 degree mark in much of the metro region. At the same time, rain will fall, heavily at times from mid-day into the evening, and the combination of the rain and melting snow is likely to create flooding in poor drainage, low-lying areas including some roadways and small streams. More seasonal chill will return to the Mid-Atlantic region on Thursday and it’ll stick around through the upcoming weekend. An explosive upper-level pattern is setting up for the early-to-middle part of next week and it can very well result in another coastal storm for the Mid-Atlantic region.
