One low pressure system is departing off to our east this morning and another is headed towards the Ohio Valley and eastern Great Lakes. Given the track of this next storm to our northwest, warmer air should push northward along the east coast by later tonight and Thursday. In the meantime, there can be some snow shower activity today…perhaps even some “snizzle”…a word I have coined for “snow drizzle”. Snow or a mix of snow and sleet this evening should change to rain later tonight and there can be some freezing still; on untreated surfaces. High pressure builds in for Friday and then a double-barreled strong storm system will impact us from Saturday into Sunday. There can be a burst of snow on Saturday morning with some accumulations possible and then rain or a mix of rain and snow is likely during the PM hours.

The pattern becomes very unsettled today due to a combination of frontal systems leading to periods of rain that can get heavy at times. The threat of rain will continue tonight, tomorrow, and tomorrow night and rainfall totals can exceed a couple inches in many areas. By mid-day Thursday, a much drier air mass should push into the northern Alabama region and it’ll turn quite chilly again leading into the end of the work week.

Low pressure will track towards the coastal waters of Virginia/North Carolina later today and tonight and snow should overspread our area during the late afternoon hours. The snow will continue through the night and wind down early tomorrow with accumulations on the order of 1-3 inches. A quick follow-up storm system will bring more wintry precipitation to the region late Wednesday and Wednesday night and a couple inches of snow and ice are possible before an ultimate changeover to plain rain early Thursday.

The next low pressure to impact the Mid-Atlantic region will take more of a southern track compared to recent systems and head to a position off the Mid-Atlantic coastline by early Wednesday. As a result, cold air will become better established farther to the south and we are looking at primarily a snow event in the Mid-Atlantic including across the DC metro region. Given the southern track, the highest snowfall amounts are likely to cut across the southern Mid-Atlantic in places like DC, Virginia, Delmarva and southern New Jersey where several inches are possible. A follow-up low pressure system will quickly follow from late Wednesday into Thursday, and it will have a lot of cold air on its front end likely resulting in snow and/or sleet by Wednesday evening in much of the Mid-Atlantic region. However, this second system will take a track to the northwest of I-95 and that path will allow for milder air to push northward resulting in a changeover by Thursday of snow/sleet to freezing rain and rain.
