Discussion

High pressure remains anchored off the east coast this morning and southwesterly winds on its backside will bring more record warmth to the Mid-Atlantic region. A weak cool front, however, will push in overnight from our northwest and high temperatures will drop some 15 degrees on Friday behind the front compared to today's potential record warmth. High pressure will remain in control on Saturday, but clouds will increase on Sunday and showers are likely by later Sunday and Monday. Looking ahead, the overall weather pattern stays relatively mild for another week to ten days, but there are signs for multiple cold air outbreaks later this month so enjoy the warmth while we have it.
