Discussion    

A cold front passed through the region last night and the new work week will start off quite chilly and well below-normal for the end of February (normal high now at DCA is 51 degrees). A weak cold front will arrive on Tuesday night, but with little impact around here at mid-week in terms of temperatures. After that, a weak “clipper” system with limited moisture will drop from northwest-to-southeast later in the week and a warm front will approach us this weekend raising the chances for some rain in the Mid-Atlantic region.
