Discussion
After a dry day on Friday, the next in a series of low pressure systems will impact the region with more rain on Saturday afternoon and Saturday night. On the back side of the low, winds will pick up noticeably on Sunday from a northwesterly direction and colder-than-normal air will pour into the Mid-Atlantic region. Snow showers are on the table for the PM hours on Sunday. It’ll stay windy and chilly on Monday despite some sunshine, but a warm-up kicks in by the middle of next week.
One final note, this is the weekend in which we turn the clocks ahead as we switch back to Daylight Savings Time.
