Discussion              

High pressure shifts to the western Atlantic Ocean today and the result will be very mild conditions through tomorrow in the Mid-Atlantic region.  A frontal system will impact the area for the next couple of days bringing us occasional rain showers or drizzle at times and patchy fog is also possible. This warm-up will reach its peak on Wednesday with temperatures likely climbing into the 60’s…potentially record-breaking highs in some spots. Colder and more seasonal conditions return by the end of the work week and low pressure off the coast could throw a couple of showers our way on Friday. Chilly this weekend with seasonal weather conditions and a low pressure system could produce some rain or snow around here.
