Discussion              

It’ll turn noticeably cooler today following the passage of the strong cold frontal system with quite a chilly air mass moving for the weekend. In fact, temperatures should bottom out in the 30’s during each of the next few nights. High pressure that originated in Canada will take control of the weather as we head into the weekend and there may be some clouds on Saturday, but more in the way of sunshine for Easter Sunday. Looking ahead, a pattern change will likely result in a warm air surge across the eastern states by the mid and latter parts of next week.
