Discussion
Low pressure will intensify over the southeast US today and then ride up along the Atlantic seaboard tonight and Saturday. There can be occasional light rain later today out ahead of the main system, but the heavier rainfall will take place tonight and Saturday. It'll turn milder in the overnight hours with temperatures likely rising through the 40's and reaching the middle 50's on Saturday afternoon. Patchy fog may form as well in the overnight hours as the in flux of milder air moves over still cold grounds. High pressure will return for the second half of the weekend, but it’ll be quite breezy and cold on Sunday. Another storm is likely to impact the region from Monday into Tuesday and this one could have enough cold air around at the onset for a period of snow and/or ice before a likely changeover to 'plain' rain.
