Discussion
There will be increasing clouds today ahead of an approaching cold front and that system will produce some rain around here from tonight into mid-day on Friday. On the backside of the front, a cold air mass will move in for Friday night and Saturday and winds will be a noticeable factor making it feel even colder than the actual air temperature. After a cool day to end the weekend, it turns much milder in the Mid-Atlantic region during the first half of next week with temperatures well up in the 60’s on each afternoon. A strong cold front is likely to arrive in the eastern states late next week after contributing to a possible severe weather outbreak in the Mississippi/Tennessee Valleys.
