Very cold conditions will persist for a little while longer, but there is light at the end of the tunnel. Temperatures will do no better today than 20 degrees for afternoon highs and should plunge later tonight to near 10 degrees for overnight lows. It stays cold on Thursday, but then the chill will fade way, and temperatures may climb to 60+ degrees for highs by the early part of next week.

Bitter cold conditions will stick around the region for another few days, but there is light at the end of the tunnel. Temperatures will do no better today than the lower 20’s for afternoon highs and should plunge later tonight into the low-to-middle single digits for overnight lows. It stays quite cold into the late week, but then the chill will fade way, and temperatures may climb to 60 degrees for highs later in the upcoming weekend.

Mild across the metro region today and there will the threat for some rain during the afternoon hours. In the mountains to the west, prolonger snow starts tonight and likely continues right through tomorrow night with moderate to heavy accumulations expected. The overall active weather pattern continues into next week with the potential of another storm system to deal with in the Monday/Tuesday time frame.

A major storm system will pound the western states during the next couple of days and it will then trek across the nation and wreak havoc in the eastern states this weekend. In California, the rainfall in coming days will be heavy all along low-lying coastal sections from Oregon to the Mexican border, and snowfall will be measured by the foot in the Sierra Nevada Mountains. By the early part of the upcoming weekend, this same storm system will bring flooding rainfall to the Ohio and Tennessee Valleys and then significant snow is likely on Sunday across interior New York State and New England.
In the Mid-Atlantic region, there will be plenty of rainfall this weekend; however, it is likely to be preceded on the front-end by snow and accumulations are possible; especially, to the north of the PA/MD border. Cold air will pour into the eastern states following this weekend storm system and next week is indeed looking very cold across the eastern two-thirds of the nation. Low pressure is likely to gather strength in the southern states by the middle of next week aided by an influx of Gulf moisture and it could become a major east coast storm system by later Wednesday or Thursday.

After a bitter cold start to the day, temperatures will moderate some this afternoon and likely reach the middle-to-upper 30’s for highs. It’ll turn even milder on Friday with temperatures climbing to the 50’s before turning colder again this weekend and snow chances will rise once again.

One low pressure system is pulling away this morning and another one is following right on its heels and will end up over the eastern Great Lakes by early Thursday. There will be some snow shower activity in the Mid-Atlantic region during the next several hours and then (light) mixed precipitation late today/early tonight should change to plain rain by late tonight/early tomorrow. Another storm system will hit the Mid-Atlantic region during the weekend and it’ll have an impact on both Saturday and Saturday. At the front end, there can be a burst of snow and/or sleet later Saturday morning or mid-day...perhaps even some accumulations north of the PA/MD border...and then rain is likely on Saturday night and Sunday. In fact, some of the rain can be heavy at times which would raise some flooding concerns given the combination of the rain with melting snow. A strong cold front pushes through the Mid-Atlantic later Sunday ushering in much colder-than-normal air mass for the first half of next week. By the middle of next week, we’ll have to watch for the possibility of an east coast storm system that would have plenty of cold air to work with in the Mid-Atlantic region.

Arctic air moved into the region in the overnight hours and it will stick around for the next few days. Temperatures will hold today in the lower 20’s for afternoon highs and drop to near 10 degree for late night lows and then hold in the teens on Wednesday. There will some snow shower activity during the first part of today, but then more widespread snow starts later in the afternoon and continues through tomorrow morning with 3 or 4 inches likely. An even more significant mountain snowfall will likely arrive later Thursday and continue into the upcoming weekend.

The overall weather pattern across Colorado will remain on the mild side for the next few days little chance of any rainfall. It does turn moderately cold this weekend, and the chance of rain (or snow) showers will return to the area.

February is now a few days old, and it looks like it will be a very active month with plenty of cold air around and it is likely to feature a polar vortex “split” and high-latitude blocking. There should be plenty of opportunities for snow, ice and rain in the Mid-Atlantic region as we progress through the month with just the next week or so likely to feature as many as three precipitation events. The first opportunity comes at mid-week, and it may turn out to be the first significant icing event in quite awhile for much of the Mid-Atlantic region with possible snow on the front end and plain rain on the back end. A similar scenario may take place this weekend with frozen precipitation possible on the front-end of the next storm system and plain rain on the back end. A third storm may threaten by the middle of next week and this one should have more cold air to work with raising the chance of accumulating snow in the Mid-Atlantic region.
