Temperatures should reach 40 degrees today which will be quite an improvement from the past couple of days; however, more intense cold is on the way. Low pressure will slide to the Carolina coastline by early Friday and an Arctic air mass will plunge into the eastern states on its backside. As a result, we’ll turn noticeable colder and windier here to end the work week and early morning low temperatures on both Saturday and Sunday are quite likely to be in single digits. A warming trend begins early next week and we’ll likely be back up in the 50’s for highs by Tuesday afternoon.

Arctic air is now sliding into the northern US from western Canada and this cold air outbreak will likely become big weather news in coming days as it spreads across the nation. Indeed, the Arctic air will push all the way south to the Lower Rio Grande Valley region of Texas over the next few days and much colder air will advance eastward to the east coast by the end of the upcoming weekend. Another big weather story will be the next powerful storm system that will generate a blizzard for much of the Midwest and Great Lakes region and more heavy rain and strong winds for the Mid-Atlantic/Northeast US. The large storm and intense cold will indeed play a role in NFL playoff games this weekend with Kansas City likely near 0 degrees at game time on Saturday evening and Buffalo’s game on Sunday afternoon could feature heavy lake-effect snow bands and very high winds.

As one powerful storm exits towards southeastern Canada, another system is gathering strength over the western US and it will become a powerhouse by Friday evening over the Upper Midwest/Great Lakes. This next strong storm will generate blizzard conditions over much of the Midwest and Great Lakes region from later Friday into Saturday and it’ll produce more heavy rain and strong winds for the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast US. Meanwhile, there has been a buildup of intense cold air over western Canada in recent days and it is now slipping south and east and into the US. This late week/weekend major storm system will actually help in its advance to the south and east and much colder air will work its way all the way to the eastern seaboard by the second half of the weekend. As it turns out, there are signs that a storm may intensify early next week somewhere near the east coast and with the expected late weekend influx of much colder air, accumulating snow may be on the table this time for the big cities along the I-95 corridor.
