Discussion
Low pressure is organizing just off the east coast today and it will result in some precipitation around here as early as this morning. Temperatures around here this morning are low enough to allow for some patchy freezing drizzle; especially, given the cold ground conditions from the recent chill. Later in the day and this evening, temperatures will be above-freezing; however, there can still be a mix of snow, ice and/or rain. This low pressure system will push away from the area on Tuesday and high pressure will retake control of the weather scene with moderately cold conditions into mid-week.
