6:30 AM | ****A messy weekend with plenty of rainfall and strong winds...snow can precede the rain on Saturday and some accumulations are likely...mid-week snow threat****

Paul Dorian

A long-lasting storm system will impact the region this weekend with snow and/or ice likely at the onset later Saturday morning into mid-afternoon and then rain is likely from late Saturday into Sunday. There can be snow accumulations of up to a few inches on Saturday before any changeover to rain takes place; especially, across some of the northern suburbs. Some of the rain that falls on Saturday night and early Sunday can be heavy at times and a rumble of thunder cannot be ruled out. A strong cold front pushes through the region later Sunday and its passage will usher in very cold air for the first half of next week. Winds will become very strong behind the cold front potentially gusting past 50 mph from later Sunday into Monday…power outages on the table.

Looking ahead, there are signs of an accumulating snow threat by the middle or latter part of next week (later Wednesday/Thursday time frame).

6:30 AM | ****A messy weekend with plenty of rainfall and strong winds...snow/sleet can precede the rain on Saturday and small accumulations are possible...mid-week snow threat****

Paul Dorian

A long-lasting storm system will impact the region this weekend with snow and/or ice possible at the onset later Saturday morning into mid-afternoon and then rain is likely from late Saturday into Sunday. There can be small snow accumulations of a coating to an inch or so on Saturday before any changeover to rain takes place; especially, across some of the far northern suburbs. Some of the rain that falls on Saturday night and early Sunday can be heavy at times and a rumble of thunder cannot be ruled out. A strong cold front pushes through the region later Sunday and its passage will usher in very cold air for the first half of next week. Winds will become very strong behind the cold front potentially gusting past 50 mph from later Sunday into Monday…power outages on the table.

****Strong storm pounds western US...reaches northeastern states this weekend...very cold next week...mid-week east coast major storm threat****

Paul Dorian

A major storm system will pound the western states during the next couple of days and it will then trek across the nation and wreak havoc in the eastern states this weekend. In California, the rainfall in coming days will be heavy all along low-lying coastal sections from Oregon to the Mexican border, and snowfall will be measured by the foot in the Sierra Nevada Mountains. By the early part of the upcoming weekend, this same storm system will bring flooding rainfall to the Ohio and Tennessee Valleys and then significant snow is likely on Sunday across interior New York State and New England.

In the Mid-Atlantic region, there will be plenty of rainfall this weekend; however, it is likely to be preceded on the front-end by snow and accumulations are possible; especially, to the north of the PA/MD border. Cold air will pour into the eastern states following this weekend storm system and next week is indeed looking very cold across the eastern two-thirds of the nation. Low pressure is likely to gather strength in the southern states by the middle of next week aided by an influx of Gulf moisture and it could become a major east coast storm system by later Wednesday or Thursday.

7:00 Am | **Turns warmer this weekend and quite unsettled with showers and thunderstorms likely...some of the weekend rain can be heavy at times**

Paul Dorian

The next couple of days will be rather quiet across the region with high pressure taking control following the passage of a cold front. An active period of weather returns this weekend with warmer conditions and an increasing chance of showers and thunderstorms. Some of the rain can be heavy at times later Saturday into Saturday night before some cooler air returns early next week.

6:30 AM | **Light rain/drizzle/fog this morning...windy, mild this afternoon...a messy weekend with plenty of rain that can be preceded by some accumulating snow**

Paul Dorian

After some light rain or drizzle this morning, it’ll turn windy this afternoon with gusts to 35 mph and milder with afternoon highs near 50 degrees. The work week will end with sunshine on Friday, but it will be cold and windy with afternoon high temperatures confined to the middle 30’s and lower wind chills.  A long-lasting storm system will impact the region this weekend with snow and/or ice possible at the onset later Saturday morning/mid-day and then rain is likely from late Saturday into Sunday. There can be some snow accumulations on Saturday before the changeover to rain. A strong cold front pushes through later Sunday and its passage will usher in a very cold air mass for the first half of next week. Looking ahead, there are signs of an east coast storm threat by the middle or latter part of next week...something we’ll closely monitor in coming days.

After some light rain or drizzle this morning, it’ll turn windy this afternoon with gusts to 35 mph and milder with afternoon highs near 50 degrees. The work week will end with sunshine on Friday, but it will be cold and windy with afternoon high temperatures confined to the upper 30’s and lower wind chills.  A long-lasting storm system will impact the region this weekend with snow and/or ice possible at the onset from mid-morning to mid-day on Saturday and then rain is likely from later Saturday into Sunday. There can be some small accumulations on Saturday before the changeover to rain.

11:30 AM | ***Active pattern continues...double-barrel weekend storm system with snow or ice possible on the front end...rain to follow...possibly heavy...east coast storm threat later next week***

Paul Dorian

One low pressure system is pulling away this morning and another one is following right on its heels and will end up over the eastern Great Lakes by early Thursday. There will be some snow shower activity in the Mid-Atlantic region during the next several hours and then (light) mixed precipitation late today/early tonight should change to plain rain by late tonight/early tomorrow. Another storm system will hit the Mid-Atlantic region during the weekend and it’ll have an impact on both Saturday and Saturday. At the front end, there can be a burst of snow and/or sleet later Saturday morning or mid-day...perhaps even some accumulations north of the PA/MD border...and then rain is likely on Saturday night and Sunday. In fact, some of the rain can be heavy at times which would raise some flooding concerns given the combination of the rain with melting snow. A strong cold front pushes through the Mid-Atlantic later Sunday ushering in much colder-than-normal air mass for the first half of next week. By the middle of next week, we’ll have to watch for the possibility of an east coast storm system that would have plenty of cold air to work with in the Mid-Atlantic region.
