It stays well below-normal during the next couple of days and some snow is likely later tomorrow as a disturbance crosses the Great Lakes….small accumulations are possible on the order of a coating to an inch or so. Temperatures will moderate for Friday and Saturday and there can be some rain shower activity during the first half of the weekend with an outside chance that ice and/or snow mixes in at times on Saturday.
A strong cold front is going to pass through early Sunday and set the stage for bitter cold Arctic air to move into the region for the bulk of next week. A wave of low pressure can form along the Arctic frontal boundary zone potentially producing some snow in the Mid-Atlantic region from later Sunday into Sunday night. The bitter cold will continue into mid-week and there can be another storm threat with its origins likely over the Gulf of Mexico.
Stay tuned…next week is looking quite interesting.

Dry and warmer conditions are in the offing for today and Thursday, but big-time changes are on the way. After temperatures climb into the 40’s today and the 50’s on Thursday, the trend to the downside will begin on Friday and accelerate this weekend. In fact, bitter cold air is likely to flood this are by the weekend and it will come with a good chance of accumulating snow from Friday night into Saturday with several inches possible. Temperatures may do no better than the teens on Saturday and potentially be confined to the single digits for highs on Sunday.

Upper-level ridging and surface high pressure will build over the region later this week and it’ll help to promote a warm-up that can result in temperatures well up in the 50’s by week’s end. Changes will begin to take place this weekend, however, as a strong upper-level trough forms over the central states. As such, colder air will make a return to the Tennessee Valley region and we’ll likely be confined to the 20’s for highs by early next week as Arctic air overspreads much of the nation.

Widespread bitter cold air looks like it will overspread the nation next week and there can be multiple storm threats as well. Temperatures are likely to fall to well below-normal levels across much of the nation which is quite impressive considering the 3rd week of January is - from a climatological point-of-view - the coldest week of the year in many areas. An Arctic front is going to head into the eastern states later in the weekend and it will be at the leading edge of this incoming Arctic air mass...some of which may have its origins on the Siberian side of the North Pole. A wave of low pressure may form along the Arctic frontal boundary zone early next week potentially producing some snow in the Mid-Atlantic region for the period from late Sunday into Monday (Inauguration Day). Another storm threat could come at mid-week with its origins way down south and perhaps there will even be a third one during the late week time period.

An Arctic blast has arrived following the passage of an overnight cold front and temperatures today will track some 15-20 degrees colder than yesterday. The winds will be quite strong right through tonight bringing wind chill levels down to single digits and there can be a couple of snow showers along the way. It stays well below-normal during the next couple of days and additional snow showers are possible later Thursday into Thursday night. Temperatures moderate on Friday and then it turns milder to start the weekend with the threat of rain shower activity on Saturday. An Arctic cold front arrives by Sunday paving the way for a much colder week ahead, and there can be some snow early next week as we transition to the colder pattern.

This will be a relatively quiet week across the nation despite another Arctic blast that arrives tonight in the eastern states, but next week looks like a different story. Widespread bitter cold air looks like it will overspread the nation next week and there can be multiple storm threats as well. Temperatures are likely to fall to far below-normal levels across much of the nation in what is from a climatological point-of-view, already the coldest week of the year in many areas.
