Discussion
A strong west-to-east moving cold frontal system is slowly working its way through the area this morning and the heavy, steady rain has evolved into a pattern of intermittent showers, maybe a residual thunderstorm. Much colder air will push into the region tonight and temperatures on Tuesday will be way below-normal for mid-April and struggle to reach the lower 50’s for highs. We’ll turn milder again at mid-week only to turn cooler again following the passage of another cool front by Thursday.
