An Arctic cold front will approach the region later today and winds will be on the increase as a result and there can be an isolated rain or snow shower as well. The coldest air so far this season pushes into the area later tonight and overnight lows are liable to be near 20 degrees across many suburban locations. Low pressure will push northeastward from the southeastern states on Friday and it should throw accumulating snow our way beginning early in the day…a coating to as much as 2 or 3 inches in some spots; especially, just to the south of the metro area.

An Arctic cold front will approach the region later today and winds will be on the increase as a result and there can be scattered snow showers as well. The coldest air so far this season pushes into the area later tonight and overnight lows are liable to be in the upper teens across most suburban locations. Low pressure will push northeastward from the southeastern states later tomorrow and it could throw some snow our way in the afternoon and evening with small accumulations possible on the order of a coating to an inch.

After yesterday’s snowfall, it’ll become partly sunny today and milder weather is on the way for the upcoming weekend. High temperatures later today in the 30’s will be replaced by the 40’s by Saturday and the lower 50’s are likely early next week.

An Arctic cold front will approach the region later today and winds will be on the increase as a result and there can be scattered snow showers as well. The coldest air so far this season pushes into the area later tonight and overnight lows are liable to be in the middle teens across most suburban locations. Low pressure will push northeastward from the southeastern states later tomorrow and it could throw some snow our way in the afternoon and evening with small accumulations possible on the order of a coating to an inch.

The month of December has gotten off to a cold start across much of the eastern half of the nation and there will be multiple cold air outbreaks in coming days. Two signals that have foreshadowed a cold period include an unusually early season stratospheric warming event and the movement of a tropical disturbance into a position that favors colder-than-normal weather across much of the nation. In fact, there appears to be a second burst of stratospheric warming in the offing for later this month resulting in a “stretched” polar vortex, and the tropical disturbance will likely persist in much of the same “cold” position” for awhile longer...both of these favor the idea of additional cold air outbreaks as we progress through the month.
The cold pattern has been quite active as well and multiple systems will have to be watched in coming days. On Friday, low pressure will develop over the Deep South and head in an northeasterly direction. This system is likely to produce some accumulating snow in the southern half of the Mid-Atlantic region and looks like a light-to-moderate snow event. Another low pressure system may pull out of the southeastern states by early next week and head in an northeasterly direction at the same time a “clipper” moves southeastward across the Great Lakes…we’ll monitor this activity as it could result in some accumulating snow for the northern Mid-Atlantic and Northeast US. Later next week, it appears a couple of other “clipper” systems will drop southeastward from southwestern Canada into the Great Lakes and ultimately, to the Northeast US. Finally, the significant change in recent days of an index value known as the “Southern Oscillation” is raising a red flag that the chance of an east coast storm will be on the rise somewhere down the road as the sub-tropical jet stream likely becomes activated.

High pressure takes control of the weather for the mid-week and then a strong cold frontal passage will take place here by tomorrow night and it will usher in the coldest air so far this season. As a result, temperatures are likely to bottom out near 20 degrees across most suburban locations by early Friday morning and highs later in the day will be confined to the middle 30’s with an increase in cloud cover. Low pressure will close in on the area from the south later in the day on Friday and it could produce some accumulating snow in portions of the Mid-Atlantic region; especially, to the south of the PA/MD border.

Skies will be partly sunny today across the region and temperatures will be on the chilly side. The weather turns wintry by late tonight with the chance of snow and periods of snow are likely on Wednesday and travel impacts are likely at mid-week.

Low pressure will head to a position off the Mid-Atlantic coastline by later today at the same high pressure to our north retreats into the northwestern Atlantic. It’ll be cold enough for awhile this morning for a mix of sleet and rain to fall across some suburban locations, but the influx of slightly milder ocean air later today will cause a transition to plain rain throughout the area…watch for AM slick spots on some of the suburban roadways.
High pressure takes control of the weather for the mid-week and then a cold frontal passage on Thursday night will usher in the coldest air so far this season. As a result, temperatures are likely to bottom out in the upper teens across most suburban locations by early Friday morning. After that, we’ll have to monitor the movement of low pressure across the southeastern states. There is a chance that this system pushes far enough to the north by Friday night/ Saturday to produce some snow in the Mid-Atlantic region...we’ll closely monitor this threat during the next few days.
