Discussion
A major pattern change is going to take place around here over the next couple of days and it will lead to a sustained period of colder-than-normal temperatures. The strong cold front that will usher in the initial cold shot in this unfolding pattern change will produce showers around here from later today through tonight and there can be a period of steadier rain early this evening. On Wednesday, the wind will pick up out of the northwest and the colder air mass will push into the Mid-Atlantic region and actually end up extending all the way down into the Deep South. An intensifying upper-level trough in the eastern US will have lots of energy rotating around it late this week and this weekend and there is the potential for low pressure to form near the east coast which could result in some snow shower activity for the I-95 corridor. Another cold air outbreak is destined to arrive next week and it looks to be even colder than this initial blast and way below-normal for this time of year.
