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 55 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.

Moisture will stream out of the Gulf of Mexico during the next few days and generate copious amounts of rain in the area. Temperatures will remain on the mild side with highs up in the 60’s through much of the remainder of the week.

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 far 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.

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.

The upcoming week generally looks mild and relatively quiet compared to recent days with high temperatures near 50 degrees on many days. There will be some snow shower activity in nearby higher elevation areas, but no organized storm system to deal with in the near-term.

Arctic chill continues to have the Mid-Atlantic region in its grips this morning with many spots in the teens and there are a few places in the single digits such as Dulles Airport at 7AM with a 7 degree reading. 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 across some of the far northern suburbs…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.
