Discussion
Last night’s frontal passage has ushered in much colder air for the region and the winds will stay a big factor as well through a good part of the day. Temperatures will be confined to the lower 50’s for highs this afternoon following the near 70 degrees that we experienced on Thursday. Winds will diminish tonight and temperatures will drop to the freezing mark late tonight under clear skies and that will be the first time this season for many locations. A secondary cold front will usher in an even cooler air mass on Sunday and a widespread freeze is likely late Sunday night/early Monday morning as high pressure moves directly overhead.
