Discussion

Some much welcomed rain is headed to the Mid-Atlantic region for this afternoon and tonight and there can be scattered showers on Wednesday. This threat of rain comes ahead of an approaching cold front which will pass through the region later tomorrow and usher in a cold air mass for Turkey Day. A secondary cold front will pass through later Thursday and even colder air will follow for Thursday night night and Friday and the winds will become very strong throughout the northeastern states. Winds will relax on Friday night and Saturday as high pressured edges this way, but temperatures will remain below-normal right through the upcoming weekend.
