Discussion
Low pressure will slide to our west today and head towards the Great Lakes region and the result here will be breezy and milder conditions with periods of rain to close out the work week. Some of the rain can be heavy at times this morning and early afternoon and then it should wind down early tonight as colder, drier air arrives from the northwest. The weekend will turn progressively colder and the next low pressure system in this on-going active weather pattern is likely to stay to our south on Sunday. Yet another storm, however, will likely impact the Mid-Atlantic region from later Monday into early Tuesday with more rain as it too slides up to the west of here. Yet another disturbance will have to be watched later next week as it gathers strength in the Southeast US at the same time colder air heads our way from the Upper Midwest. It is too early to say yet if this mid-week low pressure system will stay to our south or if it can indeed have an impact on the Mid-Atlantic region.
