Discussion
A significant coastal storm is looking increasingly likely for the DC metro region from Friday into Saturday. Low pressure will form in the eastern US at the end of the week and likely track along a frontal boundary zone right towards the Mid-Atlantic coastline. There will be some shower activity ahead of the storm on Thursday and Thursday night, but the main action from the coastal storm will be from later Friday into Saturday. Throughout the weekend and right into the early part of next week, temperatures around here should remain at below-normal levels for this time of year.
