Discussion
Arctic high pressure will remain in control of our weather today resulting in well below-normal temperatures and stiff winds will produce even lower wind chill values. On Wednesday, low pressure will begin to organize near the northern Gulf coast and then it will head east-northeast reaching the waters off the Carolina coastline by early Thursday morning. From there, the low pressure system will likely continue on an east-northeast track taking its heaviest precipitation along with it to the south and east of the metro region. While the heaviest and steadiest snow appears headed to the zone from southeastern Virginia to the Delmarva Peninsula, there can still be some snow or snow shower activity in the local area from late Wednesday night into Thursday as a northern stream upper-level low passes overhead…small accumulations of a coating to an inch are possible.
