Discussion
A strong cold front will pass through the region this morning ushering in a cold air mass for tonight and Saturday. Winds ahead of the front this morning will be from the southwest and then will shift to a northwesterly direction in the afternoon and temperatures will fall through the 40’s. Temperatures late tonight will bottom out in the mid 20’s and be confined to the low-to-mid 40’s for highs on Saturday afternoon. Temperatures will rebound on Sunday and Monday as high pressure shifts to a position off the east coast allowing for the formation of a low-level southwesterly (and milder) flow of air.
