Discussion              

A relatively weak high pressure system pushes into the Mid-Atlantic region today on the heels of low pressure that is now working its way into southeastern Canada. There will be a weak “clipper” system that drops southeast from Canada into the northern US on Tuesday and it could produce a bit of rain and/or snow in the Mid-Atlantic region later tomorrow night into early Wednesday. High pressure returns for the latter part of the week with with dry weather expected here on Thursday and Friday and it turns milder by the weekend.
