Discussion              

Strong low pressure tracks into the Great Lakes today and it’ll likely to bring a decent amount of precipitation to the Mid-Atlantic region and the precipitation type will be location dependent. Plain rain is likely to fall in areas to the south of the PA/MD border such as in the DC metro region, but a wintry mix is possible right along the Mason-Dixon Line and across southeastern PA with snow/sleet north and east of there. After a couple of very mid days at mid-week, another strong system may threaten the entire DC-to-Philly-to-NYC corridor with rain and/or snow by the end of the week.
