A strong cool front passed through the region late yesterday and today will be slightly cooler and a lot quieter. High pressure will build into the area today and it should provide decent weather into the weekend, but then a complex of disturbances will bring about some changes by early next week. The threat of showers will increase again by Sunday night and the coldest air mass of the season should spin its way into the northeastern states for Tuesday and Wednesday of next week. In fact, lake effect snow showers could develop during the first half of next week for the first time this season in the Great Lakes and Northeast US.

There have been a few chilly air masses that have reached the Mid-Atlantic/Northeast US in recent weeks, but the one destined to arrive here for next Tuesday and Wednesday will likely be the chilliest so far this season. A deep upper-level trough of low pressure will tend to rotate around and intensify during the next few days over the Great Lakes and southern part of Canada and then this system will spin its way into the eastern US by the middle of next week. With lots of instability in the atmosphere and the cold air mass pushing over the still relatively warm of the Great Lakes, snow showers are likely just downstream for the first time this season.

High pressure will remain in control of the weather around here for another day and then the most active weather day this week will take place on Thursday with the arrival of a strong cold front. Occasional showers are likely from Thursday into Thursday night, some of the rain can be hard at times, and strong wind gusts are possible. In addition, scattered thunderstorms are possible as the cold front works its way through the region. A cool air mass will follow the frontal passage for Friday and Saturday and then an even colder air mass could rotate into the northeastern states early next week.

A cold front will pass through the region today without any precipitation; however, it will have an impact on temperatures as it’ll usher in another chilly air mass to the Mid-Atlantic region. After highs near 75 degrees this afternoon, temperatures will likely be confined to the 50’s on Saturday and the coolest readings so far are possible by early Sunday morning. It stays cool on Sunday to close out the weekend and there should be a mild and quiet start to the new week on Monday and Tuesday.

The month of October has gotten off to a very chilly start in the Mid-Atlantic region and there will be another chilly air mass headed this way for the upcoming weekend. In fact, the lowest temperature readings of the season so far could come early Sunday morning, but this will very likely not be the low point of the month. Additional chilly air outbreaks are destined to move from central Canada and into the Mid-Atlantic region during the next couple of weeks and these could very well have an Arctic connection.

In fact, temperatures late Saturday night/early Sunday morning could drop to the lowest levels so far this season.

Low pressure that has been spinning for days just off the Mid-Atlantic coastline will finally be “kicked” out to sea later today with the approach of an upper-level trough from south-central Canada. As a result, the weather will improve noticeably on Thursday and the nicer weather will hold out on Friday as well despite the arrival of a strong cold frontal system. The passage of this next cold front will usher into the Mid-Atlantic region the next in a what will be a series of chilly air masses destined to come this way in coming days and weeks.
