Discussion

A weak cold frontal system passed through the region last night and its passage has ushered in a reinforcing shot of cold air and temperatures will remain at below-normal levels for the next couple of days. It’ll turn a bit milder on Friday ahead of the next cold front which will usher in another cold air mass for the start of the weekend. Some moderation in temperatures will take place on Sunday and then it'll turn noticeably milder on Monday and Tuesday with showers possible each day. Another strong cold front will then usher in a cold air mass for the middle and latter parts of next week.
