Discussion
A cold front passed through the region late yesterday and ushered into the eastern states the coldest air mass of the season so far. Temperatures will remain at below-normal levels for the next few days and the first widespread freeze is likely late tomorrow night/early Thursday morning. Low pressure may form along the frontal boundary zone late tonight and it has the chance to generate some clouds in the region and perhaps even an isolated shower into early Wednesday. Moderation in temperatures will take place on Friday, Saturday and Sunday and the weather looks pretty decent for the first weekend of November.
