Discussion
Low pressure pushed away from the Carolina coastline on Monday and strengthened out over the open waters of the western Atlantic Ocean. After a stubborn deck of clouds retreats later this morning, sunshine should return during the afternoon hours, but it'll remain cold and there will be increasingly breezy conditions. A cold front will approach the region later tonight and it could spawn some shower activity on Wednesday in the form of either snow or rain or perhaps a combination of the two. High pressure will build into the region for the latter part of the week and it'll turn milder this weekend ahead of the next cold front. The weekend cold front is likely to be accompanied by some shower activity in the Mid-Atlantic and it'll be followed by a colder air mass for the early part of next week.
