Discussion

Low pressure will slowly push away from the Northeast US coastline today and high pressure will build in for tonight and Thursday. The return to dry weather on Thursday, however, will not last too long as moisture will head our way from the Deep South on Friday and likely result in shower activity around here during the PM hours. High pressure will try to build into the region this weekend, but more moisture from the Deep South will head our way for late Sunday and Monday. In fact, this system heading our way for the Sunday night/Monday time period could turn out to be a significant rain maker for the entire I-95 corridor. Looking ahead beyond this "January thaw" several day stretch, a colder weather pattern is likely to return to the eastern US by the end of next week.
