Discussion

Big-time changes will begin to take place later this weekend with very mild conditions on Saturday being replaced by much colder conditions on Sunday. An Arctic front will slide through the eastern states during the second half of the weekend, and it’ll usher in a widespread Arctic air mass that will encompass much of the nation. After temperatures climb to well up in the 50’s on Saturday ahead of the strong cold front, they’ll likely be confined to the 20’s on Monday and Tuesday for afternoon highs.
