A weak clipper system is tracking to our southwest this morning and high pressure will edge into the area later this afternoon…end result…a continuation of our recent cloudy weather pattern and there can be a bit of drizzle or flurries at times. There will be a weak cold front coming through later tomorrow night into early Friday with rain and/or snow showers likely before a new high pressure system takes over for the weekend.

High pressure will remain in control of the weather in the Mid-Atlantic region into tonight with dry conditions and then a weak “clipper” could produce a couple of rain and/or snow showers late night and early Wednesday. High pressure will then resume control for later Wednesday and Thursday and a weak front can generate a couple of showers on Friday morning.

Low pressure pulls away from the coast today leaving us with plenty of clouds, breezy and chilly conditions. High pressure takes control for tonight and tonight and then a weak “clipper” heads this way by Wednesday. That system can produce some snow shower activity around here from late tomorrow night into early Wednesday before another high pressure takes over for the late week.

The week will end on a damp note with mostly cloudy skies, some drizzle and fog, and temperatures climbing into the 50’s. More rain is on the way for later in the weekend and it will turn cooler in the Mid-Atlantic region. One low pressure system (primary) will head into the Ohio Valley during the weekend bringing us more rain and then a secondary will form near the Mid-Atlantic coastline. While there will be little cold air around initially, strong high pressure will build into southeastern Canada and act as a cold air source. This is likely to result in a changeover from rain-to-snow across much of the interior, higher elevation locations of the northern Mid-Atlantic region and there is a slight chance for a changeover all the way down to the I-95 corridor later Sunday night.

It’ll remain wet and mild in the Mid-Atlantic region both today and tonight and there can be some patchy fog around as well. It turns even warmer on Friday with lingering rain showers possible early in the day and there can be brightening skies in the afternoon. Temperatures will surge on Friday to near 60 degrees for afternoon highs ahead of an incoming cold frontal system. Another storm system is then going to impact the Mid-Atlantic region during the second half of the weekend with one surface low pressure system (primary) heading into the Ohio Valley and a secondary likely to form near the Mid-Atlantic coastline. While there will be little cold air around initially, strong high pressure will build into southeastern Canada and act as a cold air source. This is likely to result in a changeover from rain-to-snow across much of the interior, higher elevation locations in the Mid-Atlantic and potentially, all the way down to the I-95 corridor on Sunday night.

The next couple of days will be wet, foggy and mild in the Mid-Atlantic region and there will be a surge of temperatures on Friday in much of the I-95 corridor. Another storm system is then going to impact the Mid-Atlantic late in the weekend with one surface low pressure system (primary) heading into the Ohio Valley and a secondary likely to form near the Mid-Atlantic coastline. While there will be little cold air around initially, strong high pressure will build into southeastern Canada and act as a cold air source. This is likely to result in a changeover from rain-to-snow across much of the interior, higher elevation Mid-Atlantic region on Sunday night and there is a chance for a changeover to snow all the way down into the N/W suburbs of the big cities.
Elsewhere, the overall pattern for the next several days will bring copious amounts of rainfall to the Lower Mississippi and Tennessee Valleys - areas that have been quite dry in recent weeks - and to the US west coast from California-to-Washington which will be inundated by multiple storms during the next couple of weeks.

The next few days will be mild in the Mid-Atlantic region and quite wet as well as moisture steadily flows to the northeast from the Gulf of Mexico. The warmest day of the week will be on Friday when temperatures surge to near 60 degrees in the Philly metro region. Another storm system is then likely to impact the Mid-Atlantic region later in the upcoming weekend with one surface low pressure system (primary) heading into the Ohio Valley and a secondary likely to form near the Mid-Atlantic coastline. While there will be little cold air around initially, strong high pressure will build into southeastern Canada and act as a cold air source…possibly resulting in a changeover from rain-to-snow across interior sections of the Mid-Atlantic/Northeast US on Sunday night.

Strong high pressure system will push off the eastern seaboard today opening the door for moisture to push northeastward from the Gulf of Mexico and into the northern Ohio Valley. From there, the moisture will slide eastward later tonight bringing us the chance for late night rain and it could freeze on some surfaces across the northern and western suburbs. On Wednesday - and also during the days on Thursday and Friday - it should be warm enough for just plain rain to fall throughout the metro region. Indeed, the warmest day of the week is likely to be on Friday at which time afternoon temperatures might peak near the 60 degree mark. The weekend begins on a mild note, but it turns colder by Sunday and low pressure is likely to bring us some rain to close out the weekend.

The 7-day period from 14 January to 20 January was very cold across most of the nation with the mean temperature anomaly of -11°F in the Lower 48. The next 7-days will be quite a different story as a milder weather pattern develops for much of the country. This warm-up, however, will not come without wintry threats in the Mid-Atlantic region and Northeast US. The change in the overall pattern will bring copious amounts of rainfall for the Lower Mississippi Valley region in the near-term and plenty of moisture-filled storm systems for the US west coast during the next couple of weeks.
In the near term, there is likely to be some freezing rain from later Tuesday night into early Wednesday across much of Pennsylvania and northern New Jersey and maybe all the way into the nearby N/W suburbs of Philly and NYC and the far N/W suburbs of DC. It does turn wet and milder in the Mid-Atlantic region during the second half of the week with the warmest day likely to be on Friday when temperatures will surge. Another storm system is then likely to impact the Mid-Atlantic/Northeast US late in the upcoming weekend with one surface low pressure system (primary) heading into the Ohio Valley and a secondary likely to form near the Mid-Atlantic coastline. While there will be little cold air around initially, strong high pressure will build into southeastern Canada and act as a cold air source…possibly resulting in a changeover from rain-to-snow across interior sections of the Mid-Atlantic/Northeast US. Looking ahead, there are signs that an overall colder weather pattern may re-develop in the central and eastern states as we progress through the early part of February and towards the middle of next month.

Arctic chill continues to have the Mid-Atlantic region in its grips this morning with most spots in the teens and there are a few places in the single digits across interior sections of New Jersey. After highs in the 30’s later today, temperatures should reach 40 degrees on Tuesday afternoon. There will be a chance of some rain late tomorrow night and it can freeze on some surfaces…something to watch for going into Wednesday morning. The weather does turn noticeably milder during the second half of the week and it’ll be quite unsettled as well with multiple chances for rain.
