Discussion

The pressure difference between a very strong low pressure system over the Canadian Maritimes and an incoming high pressure remains high today and the result will be a continuation of powerful NW winds in the Mid-Atlantic region. Winds can gust up to 50 mph or so which will make the chilly air mass feel even colder as we begin the new work week.

Big temperature changes are on the way for the next few days. With high pressure pushing over the region on Tuesday, temperatures will surge to the 60’s and 70 degree highs are likely for Wednesday and Thursday. In fact, it’ll remain unseasonably mild into the weekend, but a shower threat is likely to return by Friday and Saturday.
