A strong Arctic cold front pushed through the area on Thursday morning and today will turn out to be one of the coldest day so far this season with high temperatures likely confined to the lower 30’s. In addition, stiff NW winds will produce much lower wind chill values making it feel even colder than those well below-normal ambient temperatures. Moderation begins this weekend and it’ll turn noticeably milder for the early part of next week to go along with the chance of rain.

A strong Arctic cold front pushed through the area on Thursday morning and today will turn out to be one of the coldest days so far this season with high temperatures likely confined to the middle 30’s. In addition, stiff NW winds will produce much lower wind chill values making it feel even colder than those well below-normal ambient temperatures. Moderation begins this weekend and it’ll turn noticeably milder for the early part of next week to go along with the chance of rain.

Arctic air has flooded the eastern states on the heels of a cold frontal passage and temperatures around here today will be confined to the middle and upper 30’s for afternoon highs. After a cold night, temperatures on Friday will not do much better than today peaking near the 40-degree mark in the afternoon. It does turn milder this weekend and we’ll likely be dealing with some rain for Sunday and Monday of early next week.

A strong cold front will push through the area early today and its passage may be accompanied by snow showers and perhaps even a brief heavier snow squall. Any quick burst of snow early today can result in slippery road conditions due to the fact that the ground is quite cold given the recent extended stretch of well below-normal temperatures. Winds will shift to a northwesterly direction on the heels of the frontal passage and can gust to 50 mph or so from later this morning into later tonight potentially resulting in some downed tree limbs and scattered power outages. Arctic air will flood the Mid-Atlantic region later today riding in on these strong NW winds and this will lead to the lowest wind chills of the season so far. After a cold and windy day on Friday, temperatures will moderate as we go through the upcoming weekend and rain is back in the forecast for the early part of next week.

Low pressure will move in a general “west-to-east” fashion across southern Canada during the next 48 hours and it will strengthen dramatically by the time it reaches the Canadian Maritime Provinces on Friday morning. This intensifying storm system and its associated strong cold front will have a big impact on the Great Lakes, Mid-Atlantic and Northeast US between later today and Friday to include some accumulating snow, possible snow squalls, powerful and potentially damaging wind gusts of 50 mph or so, and the ushering in of another Arctic air mass which will produce the lowest wind chills of the season so far.

Low pressure will push across southern Canada during the next couple of days in a general “west-to-east” fashion and it’ll strengthen markedly by the time it reaches the Canadian Maritime Provinces on Thursday evening. This low pressure system will have a trailing strong cold front that will slide across the I-95 corridor region during the early morning hours on Thursday and its passage will likely not go unnoticed. There can be snow and/or rain showers along the I-95 corridor from later tonight into tomorrow morning and perhaps even a heavier snow squall as the cold front surges through the area and to the east coast. Small accumulations are on the table between later tonight and the late morning hours on Thursday and, as a word of caution, the ground is quite cold given the recent below-normal temperature pattern so any snow that does fall – even if only minor amounts - can quickly lead to slippery road conditions early tomorrow.
In addition to the snow and/or rain showers, the winds will become a big factor during this weather event increasing noticeably later tonight from a southwesterly direction and then they are likely to gust to 50 mph or so from a northwesterly direction on Thursday and Thursday night following the passage of the front. These powerful and potentially damaging NW winds later tomorrow and tomorrow night will usher in another Arctic air mass and wind chills are going to reach their lowest levels so far this season.
