Discussion
The biggest weather story of the work week in the Mid-Atlantic region will be a rain event from Wednesday into at least Thursday night and then a cold blast of air will arrive this weekend. High pressure will be in control from today into tomorrow and then low pressure will move to the northwest of here from later Wednesday into Thursday resulting in occasional rain across the area. In addition, a secondary low will form off the coastline extending the rain event into Thursday night or perhaps even early Friday. A strong cold front will arrive here this weekend ushering in a pretty cold air mass for the latter part of March.
