Discussion

Low pressure passed by to our south on Thursday and the next couple of days should be dry and increasingly mild. The mild weather on Saturday will come ahead of a strong Arctic cold front which arrives in the area on Sunday potentially bringing some snow shower activity to the area. A weak low pressure system will head towards the Mid-Atlantic region on Monday, but any snow here will be limited as we’ll be on its northern fringes. A second low pressure system could follow on Monday night and Tuesday with some rain, ice and/or snow possible. Looking ahead, a big-time warmup is likely by the end of the next week and weekend, and it should last well into the second week of March with a real taste of spring on the way.
