Discussion
A major warm up will begin in earnest today as southwesterly winds pick up and temperatures climb well into the 60’s despite some clouds. Temperatures will climb well into the 70's for highs on Friday and Saturday - perhaps even reaching the 80 degree mark in some spots. It could turn a lot colder on Sunday depending on the movement of a back door cold front that will be moving down the Northeast US coastline. A heavy rain event is likely from late Sunday night into Monday as a strong cold front pushes in from the west. There can be strong thunderstorms mixed into the picture as well and rainfall could exceed two inches in many I-95 locations by later Monday morning. This same west-to-east moving cold front will likely result in a widespread severe weather outbreak on Friday (southern Plains) and Saturday (Tennessee and Ohio Valleys) and the next month or so could very well be quite active with numerous severe weather events.
