Discussion
Temperatures should reach 40 degrees today which will be quite an improvement from the past couple of days; however, more intense cold is on the way. Low pressure will slide to the Carolina coastline by early Friday and an Arctic air mass will plunge into the eastern states on its backside. As a result, we’ll turn noticeable colder and windier here to end the work week and early morning low temperatures on both Saturday and Sunday are quite likely to be in single digits. A warming trend begins early next week and we’ll likely be back up in the 50’s for highs by Tuesday afternoon.
