Discussion
Following the passage of yesterday’s strong cold front, colder air moved into the region in the overnight hours. The cold front has stalled out along the east coast and low pressure will form later today along the frontal boundary zone. The low will ride up to the northeast and generate some rain showers in the area from late tonight into Wednesday. It can be just cold enough in some areas for a few flakes of snow to mix in at times; especially, in the higher elevation locations to the north and west of I-95. The colder-than-normal weather for mid-April will stick around through the remainder of the week and there will be additional cold air outbreaks as we progress through the second half of April.
