Discussion
Slow-moving low pressure will pull away from the region today, but it’ll stay quite windy and cold despite plenty of sunshine. High pressure will be in control of the weather for the next couple of days, but then a storm system from the southern states could make a move in our direction at the end of the week. In fact, there is the chance for some significant precipitation from this storm system in the Friday night/Saturday time period and it could be cold enough for a changeover to sleet and/or snow on the back end of the system. Longer term, the overall weather pattern that has evolved should continue to bring more frequent cold air outbreaks into the central and eastern US into at least the middle of the month of December.
