Discussion

All eyes this week will be on a storm system that will approach southern California by Thursday or so and then take a southern track across the Deep South. By the weekend, this storm will likely have a significant impact on the south-central and southeast parts of the country and then it will need to be closely monitored to see if it makes a turn up along the eastern seaboard. If so, it could become a significant snow and/or rain producer for the Mid-Atlantic region in the Sunday/Monday time frame....stay tuned. In the short term, it’ll turn colder around here in the overnight hours following a relatively mild start to the week and the renewed chill will remain in place for the remainder of the week.
