December will begin with chilly conditions in the DC metro region and quite likely some rainfall during the afternoon and evening hours. Low pressure pushes towards the Great Lakes later in the day and its moisture field will advance in this direction resulting in some rain here and then a cold front passes through in the overnight hours. The weekend turns milder and starts out on the dry side; however, there will likely be lots of clouds around on Saturday and occasional showers can return on Saturday night and Sunday. Looking ahead, a “clipper” system will drop southeast from Canada next week and it could bring some snow and/or rain to the Mid-Atlantic region by mid-week.

The Earth’s upper atmosphere is an interesting place these days and will be impacted in the near-term by a so-called “cannibal” coronal mass ejection (CME). In addition, there is an on-going stratospheric warming event that can have an impact on winter weather conditions across parts of the nation later in the month of December and possibly well into January as well. The incoming CME can result in some communication problems on Friday, December 1st and it certainly can produce northern lights potentially visible all the way down into the middle latitudes. The unfolding stratospheric warming event can increase the chances for cold air outbreaks to make their way this winter season from the higher latitudes to the middle latitudes.
