Discussion
The first winter storm of the season in the Mid-Atlantic region will pull away today and sunshine is going to return to the area. It will, however, stay quite cold and breezy in the wake of the storm and overnight lows during the next couple of nights will be way down in the 20’s. A weak disturbance can bring us a few scattered snow showers late tonight/early tomorrow, but then high pressure will take control of our weather into the upcoming weekend. Looking ahead, signs point to quite a cold blast late next week into the central and eastern US – just in time for Christmas Day.
