Discussion

There will be occasional showers around here today and tonight as a strengthening storm system organizes off the northern Mid-Atlantic coastline and the winds will pick up in intensity from a northwesterly direction. The week will close out with temperatures well below normal and winds will remain quite a factor making it feel even colder than the actual ambient temperatures. While the weekend should feature plenty of sunshine on both days, the winds will remain and temperatures are to stay colder-than-normal for this time of year.
