Discussion
A cold front cross the region on Tuesday, but the air behind it will not be all that cold and temperatures later today should peak near 50 degrees. Low pressure from the Tennessee Valley will move northeast later today and spread rain into our area from later tonight into Thanksgiving Day. Temperatures on Thursday are likely to spend most of the day in the 40’s and it turns colder by the upcoming weekend as a broad northwesterly flow of air forms on the backside of the departing low pressure system. The cold air outbreak that reaches the Mid-Atlantic region this weekend will be the opening salvo of what looks like an extended colder-than-normal stretch of weather that likely lasts through the first couple of weeks of December.
