Discussion
It’ll turn a bit milder today ahead of a weak cold frontal system, but then cooler again for the next couple of days. A significant cold air outbreak appears to be headed in this direction from central Canada for the end of the work week and, at the same time, moisture is likely to advance to the northeast from the southern states along the frontal boundary zone. There is a chance that this could result in a rain-changing-to-snow showers type of scenario from late Thursday night into early Friday morning for at least parts of the region. Whether or not the snow showers actually materialize, the cold blast will be the bigger story and temperatures Friday night will be unusually cold for early November. Another very impressive cold blast for the early season is destined to arrive here early next week.
