Discussion
A cold front passed through the region early yesterday and high pressure building across southeastern Canada is briefly in control of our weather. As a result, we’ll take a downturn in temperatures today with highs confined to 50 degrees or slightly lower which is below-normal for this time of year. Low pressure will influence conditions around here from late Wednesday night into Thursday with occasional showers likely through mid-day on Thanksgiving Day. High pressure builds back into the region at the end of the week and it should generate pretty decent weather in the Mid-Atlantic region for Friday and Saturday.
