A much different weather picture today as we start the new work week compared to the past few days thanks to high pressure building to our north across southeastern Canada. As a result, an onshore low-level flow of air has formed and this has pushed in much cooler air to the Mid-Atlantic region from the western Atlantic Ocean. A warm front will lift northward through the region by early Wednesday and temperatures could soar at mid-week, but that surge in warmth will be rather short-lived. In fact, early signs for the long Memorial Day weekend are not all that promising with cool, damp conditions possible for at least part of the time.

Strong and sprawling high pressure over the northeastern quadrant of the nation will continue to be the main player around here during the next several days and a key to the season’s first extended unseasonably warm stretch of weather. There will be a back door cool front that pushes from east-to-west across the region later today and low-level easterly winds will develop and knock off at least a few degrees in the temperature department compared to Wednesday’s highs and overnight lows should be in the 50’s. A stronger and more conventional cool front is likely to drop southeast from the Great Lakes region at the end of the weekend and its passage should usher in somewhat cooler air for the early part of next week following a very warm weekend.

Sprawling high pressure will remain near the Mid-Atlantic region for the next several days and will be the main player in the overall weather pattern which should result in temperatures well up in the 80’s. A back door cool front will likely knock off a few degrees on Thursday and then a stronger cool front will arrive late in the weekend from the northwest.

A surge in temperatures is about to take place in the Mid-Atlantic region with temperatures climbing well into the 80’s at mid-week along the I-95 corridor. Temperatures have yet to reach the 90 degree mark officially this spring in the I-95 corridor, but they have a pretty decent shot this week in the Washington, D.C. metro region and an outside shot in Philly and New York City. One wrench in the unseasonably warm outlook is the possibility that a back door cool front could knock off several degrees later in the week; especially, in the New York City metro region and coastal New Jersey.

Temperatures will edge higher over the next couple of days into the lower 70’s this afternoon and to the middle 70’s on Saturday afternoon. Weak low pressure and its associated frontal system could produce some shower activity in the region on Sunday and Monday and an isolated thunderstorm cannot be ruled out as well.
