Discussion
After a chilly day on Sunday, it’ll turn a bit milder today and stay warmer-than-normal through the week. High pressure will be in control in much of the eastern US for the next several days although there will be a couple of weak frontal systems to deal at times. A stronger cold front will head this way this weekend and that is likely to result in a cool down by the end of the weekend. One final note, record high temperature were indeed set on Saturday in DC (70 degrees), Philly (68 degrees) and New York City’s Central Park (66 degrees).
