Discussion
A strong cold front will approach the region later today from the Ohio Valley and it’ll turn windy and warmer with highs near 80 degrees. Showers and thunderstorms are likely early tonight (6-10pm) and some of the storms can reach strong-to-severe levels with damaging wind gusts and downpours. Cooler temperatures will return to the region for tomorrow and Wednesday following the cold frontal passage and there will be another big cool shot arriving in the Northeast US by the end of the week. Strong low pressure is likely to form later this week with that next cold frontal boundary zone and the result here is likely to be a significant rain event.
