Temperatures will be well above-normal in the central US during the next couple of days and this warm-up will extend to the eastern US this Friday and Saturday. However, a pattern change to colder-than-normal weather begins next week in the central and eastern US and this change looks like it will have some staying power. Numerous teleconnection indices point to a significant change in the overall pattern that indeed could last into March and recurring stratospheric warming supports the idea. As far as storm threats are concerned, signs are increasing for low pressure to push into the Mid-Atlantic region early next week on the front-end of this pattern transition. While there will be no cold air established on the front-end, it is possible that cold air can get wrapped into the system depending on its track so accumulating snow cannot be ruled out.

High pressure will remain in control of the weather around here for the next several days. As the high pushes off the coast later in the week, milder air will transition from the central states to the eastern US and temperatures here can peak near 60 degrees by the first half of the upcoming weekend. It does begin to transition to a colder pattern early next week and there may be low pressure to deal with at the front-end of this transition in the overall temperature pattern.

Temperatures will climb to well above-normal levels in the central US during the next couple of days and then in the eastern US this Friday and Saturday. However, a pattern change to colder-than-normal begins next week in the central and eastern US and this change looks like it will have some staying power. Numerous teleconnection indices point to an upcoming change in the temperature pattern and an on-going stratospheric warming event supports the idea.

Widespread high pressure sits over the eastern US as we begin the new work week and it’ll be in control of the weather for much of the week. Low pressure will meander around over the western Atlantic for the next few days, but it’s impact around here should be minimal. The high slides off the east coast late in the week and low pressure will head into the Great Lakes region resulting in quite mild weather around here to start the upcoming weekend.

A cold front is pushing through the region this morning and high pressure will build in for later today and the upcoming weekend. After early day showers, dry conditions should prevail from later today through the upcoming weekend. In fact, there should finally be a decent amount of sunshine on back-to-back days this weekend for the first time in quite awhile. Elsewhere, a powerful storm system will slide all the way across the southern states this weekend after pounding California, and then it will hang out for awhile over the western Atlantic Ocean. A second storm system arrives along the US west coast later this weekend and it’ll produce additional heavy rainfall for the Golden State and lots of interior snows.

A cold front will push through the area from late tonight into early Friday and it is likely to generate some rain in the region and flakes can be mixed in at times in some spots. High pressure will then push in for the weekend and we should get genuine sunshine on back-to-back days for the first time in quite awhile to go along with seasonably chilly conditions.

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.
