Discussion
Low pressure slowly pushes away from the Mid-Atlantic coastline today and clouds will linger this morning with occasional light rain or drizzle. Clearing will take place this afternoon and tonight and temperatures will drop back to the 30’s in the overnight hours, but then rebound to 60+ degrees on Wednesday afternoon. The mild weather pattern continues on Thursday ahead of the next cold front which will usher in colder air for the end of the week. Strong low pressure will head towards the Great Lakes on Friday and a secondary system may form near the Mid-Atlantic coastline likely resulting in another rain event for the local area.
