Discussion
A significant cold air outbreak is headed to the Mid-Atlantic region and will result in mid-week temperatures that will struggle to reach the 30 degree mark. In addition, winds will be strong out of the NW on Wednesday with gusts to 30 mph generating even lower wind chill values. Before this next Arctic blast arrives, there may be some rain and snow shower activity to deal with from late tonight into tomorrow night and sleet can be mixed in as well at times. Some snow is possible later in the week as additional upper-level energy drops into the eastern US from the Northern Plains. One final note, the official snow total at Central Park on Saturday was 4.6 inches from the first accumulating snow event of the season.
