High pressure that first formed over central Canada last week has drifted southeastward over the past few days to a position over the western Atlantic Ocean. As a result, clockwise winds on the back side of the high have produced a broad southwesterly flow of air and temperatures have responded here in a noticeably higher manner. This warm up will continue around here right into the upcoming weekend with daily highs mainly at or above 70 degrees. One final note about the weekend, we turn the clocks ahead early Sunday morning.

High pressure that first formed over central Canada last week has drifted southeastward over the past few days to a position over the western Atlantic Ocean. As a result, clockwise winds on the back side of the high have produced a broad flow of air from the southwest-to-the northeast and temperatures have responded noticeably higher across the eastern half of the nation.

High pressure that first formed over central Canada has drifted southeastward over the past few days and it will emerge out over the western Atlantic Ocean by tomorrow. As a result, clockwise winds on the back side of the high have produced a broad flow of air from the southwest-to-the northeast and temperatures have responded noticeably higher across the central Plains and Midwest. This warm up will expand into the eastern states by tomorrow afternoon and it’ll stay on the warm side of normal for much of the remainder of the week. In fact, 70 degrees is possible for highs here by Wednesday afternoon and temperatures should be able to climb well up into the 70’s on Thursday and Friday.

Strong high pressure across southern Canada will shift eastward this weekend to a position over the western Atlantic Ocean by early next week. As a result, southwest winds on the back side of the high will promote a major warming trend in much of the eastern half of the nation during the first half of next week. The warm up will first begin on Sunday/Monday in the central states and then shift to the eastern US by Tuesday/Wednesday. Temperatures here in northern Alabama will climb to 60 degrees by later this weekend and then likely into the lower 70’s by the time we reach the middle of next week.

A strong and cold Canadian high pressure system will dominate the weather scene over the next few days in much of the northeastern quadrant of the nation including the Mid-Atlantic region. The days will feature colder-than-normal temperatures for early March and persistent NW winds will make it feel even colder than the actual ambient air temperature. Once this high pressure system shifts off the east coast early next week, a strong southwesterly flow of air will set up on its backside and begin a significant warm up in the central US on Sunday/Monday which will then expand into the eastern states on Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday.

Don’t be surprised to see some snowflakes later tonight in some of the northern and western suburbs along the DC-to-Philly-to-NYC corridor as moisture pushes into a relatively cold and dry air mass (dew points in the teens). In fact, there can be a coating to an inch or so in some of the nearby northern and western suburbs of Philly and NYC and also in some of the far northern and western suburbs of DC.
Rain will be the dominate precipitation type on Saturday morning in the DC-to-Philly-to-NYC corridor before it winds down at mid-day and there will be significant rainfall on Sunday and Sunday night. An Arctic front will then blast through the Northeast US/Mid-Atlantic region on Monday and the winds will kick up noticeably later in the day and continue quite strong on Monday night. In addition, the plunge in temperatures will be quite dramatic in this short, but intense Arctic cold air outbreak and there can even be a few snow squalls in the Northeast US upon its arrival.
