A weak cool front passed through the region yesterday and ushered in more seasonal air for this time of year. High pressure builds into the area today following the frontal passage and we’ll experience dry, mild weather for the next couple of days. The weekend gets a little bit unsettled as a warm front arrives late Saturday and then a cold front approaches the I-95 corridor on Easter Sunday.
Read MoreA weak cool front is passing through the region this morning and today will turn out to be a bit cooler than yesterday and the remainder of the week will be more seasonal. High pressure builds into the area for Thursday and Friday following the passage of today’s frontal system. The weekend will become somewhat unsettled as a warm front arrives on Saturday and then a weak cold front approaches the I-95 corridor on Easter Sunday.
Read MoreHigh pressure remains in control along the east coast today and it’ll be another nice and warm day. A weak cool front will pass through the area by early tomorrow and it’ll turn a bit cooler, but still pretty decent for this time of year with more seasonal temperatures. High pressure resumes control for the second half of the week.
Read MoreA very nice start to the week with high pressure in control providing us with plenty of sunshine and warm conditions. A weak cool front will pass through the area by Wednesday and it’ll turn a bit cooler at mid-week, but still pretty decent for this time of year.
Read MoreOn the backside of the yesterday’s strong storm, it’ll be quite windy and chilly today in the I-95 corridor and there will be occasional showers. This air mass is so chilly, in fact, there will be accumulating snow today in the Ohio Valley, eastern Great Lakes and in the higher elevations of the Appalachian Mountains. It’ll stay cooler-than-normal on Saturday despite plenty of sunshine, but spectacular weather is coming (finally) for Sunday, Monday and Tuesday and we'll be pushing 80 degrees by Tuesday afternoon.
Read MoreA major storm system is currently intensifying rapidly near the Blue Ridge in northwest Virginia where pressure falls of 4 millibars have been observed in the past two hours resulting in a central pressure of 994 mb. The low pressure system will move northward into eastern PA this afternoon – enhancing instability along the way – and ultimately, make its way into New York State. As a result of this unfolding situation, there will be rounds of showers and strong-to-severe thunderstorms for the next few hours in the DC, Philly and NYC metro regions. There are currently no National Weather Service severe thunderstorm watches, but that should change shortly. Some of the rain will be heavy at times and some of the storms can reach strong or severe levels with damaging wind gusts, hail and even isolated tornadoes possible
Read MoreSurface low pressure will form later this morning across northern Virginia and intensify as it pulls northward through Pennsylvania and into New York State. Aiding in the development of this powerful surface low pressure system is a combination of strong upper-level energy and energetic jet streaks and this setup will lead to the formation of occasional heavy rain and strong-to-severe thunderstorms for parts of the Mid-Atlantic region; especially, from Route I-95 to the coast. On the backside of the storm, it’ll turn much cooler and windy on Friday with additional light rain showers possible in the I-95 corridor and accumulating snow is likely in the Ohio Valley, Great Lakes and in the higher elevations of the Appalachian Mountains. After a cool day on Saturday, we'll have great weather for Sunday, Monday and Tuesday.
Read MoreThe active weather pattern that we have been experiencing during the past several days has one more potent system to send our way and it looks like it’ll be a major storm with some heavy rain and possible strong thunderstorms in the Mid-Atlantic region. Low pressure will form early tomorrow just east of the mountains in northern Virginia and then intensify rapidly as it pushes northward through Pennsylvania and into western New York. Aiding in the development of this powerful low pressure system and possible severe weather outbreak will be a combination of strong upper-level energy and energetic jet streaks at multiple levels of the atmosphere. The main severe weather threat area today is in the Southeast US with a focus on Georgia and South Carolina, but that'll transfer to the Mid-Atlantic on Thursday; especially, in those sections near the coastline.
On the backside of the storm, it’ll turn much cooler and windy on Friday with additional rain showers likely in the I-95 corridor region from DC-to-Philly-to-NYC. In addition, this major storm will likely generate accumulating snow on Friday in the Ohio Valley, Great Lakes, and the higher elevations of the Appalachian Mountains. One final note, grounds are now pretty well saturated in areas north of the PA/MD border after recent soaking rain events and this will raise concerns for localized flooding on Thursday and Thursday night.
Read MoreThe active weather pattern that we have been experiencing during the past couple of weeks has one more potent system to send our way and it looks like it will produce a soaking rain around here and ingredients may come together for strong-to-severe thunderstorms. A major storm will develop in the Mid-Atlantic region by tomorrow afternoon and this combined with vigorous upper-level energy and powerful low-level and upper-level jet streaks should result in a significant rainfall (0.5-1.0 inches) and possible strong-to-severe thunderstorms. On the backside of the storm, it’ll turn much cooler and stay windy on Friday around here with additional rain showers possible. Accumulating snow is likely on Friday from the eastern Great Lakes region to the Appalachian Mountains of West Virginia.
