Discussion
High pressure shifts to the western Atlantic Ocean over the next couple of days and this will promote a warming trend around here as Pacific Ocean air pushes eastward into the Mid-Atlantic region. As a result, temperatures will climb to the 50’s this afternoon and to near the 60 degree mark tomorrow and again on Sunday. The milder weather pattern will become wet on Saturday and rain is a good bet; especially, during the afternoon and evening hours. The new year should begin quite mild on Sunday with the return of some sunshine.
