Discussion
High pressure extended down the Northeast US coastline on Sunday salvaging the second half of the weekend for us here in the DC metro region. However, the brief break in the rainy weather pattern will end today as low pressure begins to track slowly up the east coast. In fact, this slow-moving system is likely to generate some rain around here right into tomorrow night and temperatures will remain on the cool side throughout this precipitation event. Later Wednesday, as the low pressure system finally pulls away, much milder air will pour into the Mid-Atlantic region and a significant warm surge will boost temperatures well into the 80’s by the end of the week.
