Discussion
Temperatures dropped to near the freezing mark in many spots again late last night and there will be repeat performances late tonight and late Saturday night. The weekend will start off on the dry and chilly side and likely remain that stay way on Sunday as low pressure pushes no farther north than the North Carolina coastline. However, this system still has to be monitored during the next couple of days. A noticeable warm up is coming to much of the eastern half of the nation next week including right here in the Mid-Atlantic region. Looking ahead, there is the potential for a significant rain event in the eastern US at the end of next week. One final note...it is time once again to turn the clocks back an hour.
