Discussion
High pressure pushes off the coast today and we’ll have to deal with a couple of frontal systems as we begin the new work week. First, a warm front lifts through the region early today and then a cold front will push across the region early tonight. As a result, it’ll be a damp start to the week with scattered showers in the Mid-Atlantic region and maybe a late day/evening gusty thunderstorm. Another cold front may push through the area on Wednesday which should be followed by high pressure for the end of the week. Following the frontal passage, Thursday promises to be the coolest day of the week with way below-normal temperatures. In fact, it looks like there will be numerous cold air outbreaks during the rest of the month of October.
