Discussion

The week will start off with far below-normal temperatures in the Mid-Atlantic region following the passage of a strong cold front on Sunday night. Temperatures will struggle today to climb past the freezing mark and overnight lows should be in the lower teens in most areas...coldest readings so far this season. Some moderation in temperatures will come by the middle of the week as a low pressure system passes by to our north, and then a “clipper” system could produce some snow and/or rain around here later in the week. Looking ahead, another frigid air mass is likely to impact much of the central and eastern US this weekend supported by an extremely strong Canadian high pressure system.
