Discussion
A very cold start to the new week with Arctic high pressure still in control across the Mid-Atlantic region. This high departs early tonight and a weak low pressure system to our northwest can produce a band of snow here early Tuesday morning which may be mixed with sleet and/or freezing rain…a coating to an inch or so is possible, watch for slippery spots as road conditions are quite cold. Some sunshine will return for Tuesday afternoon and also Wednesday, Christmas Day, and it stays moderately cold for this time of year.
