Discussion
A chilly air mass will flood the Mid-Atlantic region today on the heels of a frontal passage and it can lead to the coldest night of the season so far. Temperatures today will be limited to the low-to-mid 50’s for afternoon highs and then they’ll likely drop to 30 degrees or slightly below in the late night hours. In addition to the chill, winds will become quite a factor today with gusts up to 35 mph or so out of the northwest. Temperatures late tomorrow night are likely to fall to near 30 degrees once again and then clouds will dominate the skies on Thursday as the next front approaches and it can be accompanied by some more rain shower activity.
