Discussion              

Clouds will increase today ahead of a weak “clipper” system that drops southeast across the Upper Midwest on its way to a position over the western Atlantic by early Wednesday. This system is limited in its moisture content and, as such, is unlikely to produce anything more than a bit of rain and/or snow around here from later tonight into early Wednesday. It stays on the cold side behind it through the day on Thursday, but then turns noticeably milder for Friday and Saturday. A strong cold front approaches on Sunday and this could lead to a soaking rain event along the eastern seaboard to close out the upcoming weekend with a cold shot to follow for the early part of next week.
