Discussion
High pressure will control the weather around here for the next couple of days and it’ll remain rather chilly in the Mid-Atlantic region for this time of year. A cold front will approach the region late Wednesday night and Thursday at the same time low pressure intensifies near the Mid-Atlantic coastline. As a result, Thursday is likely to feature occasional rain and what may turn out to be quite a decent rainfall for the region. A strong secondary cold front will arrive on Friday as intensifying low pressure slowly pulls away to the northeast and the last day of the work week may feature windy and cold conditions with possible snow showers. Cold weather will stick around at the start of the upcoming weekend, but Sunday promises to be noticeably milder.
