The bitter cold weather pattern continues across the eastern states during the next few days with significant impacts reaching all the way down to southern Florida. In fact, the temperature will drop to near freezing in Miami by Sunday morning and zero-degree overnight lows are on the table during the next couple of nights in the Mid-Atlantic’s I-95 corridor. In addition to the cold, there will be explosive cyclogenesis this weekend near the east coast with biggest impacts from storm system likely to be across portions of Virginia, the Carolinas, and eastern New England as well. The I-95 region from DC-to-Philly-to-NYC will not go unscathed with a noticeable increase in winds from later Saturday into Sunday and there can be some snow with small accumulations on the table.

It remains brutally cold around here for the next couple of days with afternoon high temperatures generally confined to the teens and overnight lows likely in the lower-to-middle single digits in many locations. As far as the weekend storm is concerned, low pressure will develop near the Carolina coastline by later Saturday and then intensify dramatically as it moves to the northeast later in the weekend. The biggest impact from this weekend storm will be across southern Virginia, North Carolina, and likely across eastern New England as well. Around here, the winds will become a noticeable factor this weekend and there is the chance for some snow from later Saturday night into Sunday…accumulations cannot be ruled out.

It remains brutally cold around here for the next couple of days with afternoon high temperatures generally confined to the teens and overnight lows flirting with the zero-degree mark in many locations. The record low temperature at Philly Airport (PHL) for Friday, January 30th, is 7 degrees…definitely in jeopardy.

The next few days will produce some of the worst of the cold for the Mid-Atlantic region with overnight lows way down in single digits or even near the zero-degree mark. Some record low temperatures are likely during this 3-day bitter cold spell and there can be some record low high temperatures as well with afternoon highs generally confined to the teens in many spots. Later this weekend, a big push of Arctic will be into the Southeast US and Florida can experience near freezing temperatures all the way to Miami by Sunday morning (watch for falling iguanas).
On the storm front, low pressure will develop near the Southeast US coastline on Saturday and then dramatically intensify as it moves over the western Atlantic Ocean somewhere to the east of the southern Mid-Atlantic region. The central pressure of this weekend storm could drop to similar levels as a category 2 or even category 3 hurricane and winds will become quite powerful. At this point, it appears the biggest impact from the weekend storm system will be confined to places like eastern North Carolina, southern Virginia, and the along coastal sections farther up the coast (e.g., New Jersey, Delmarva)…still a few days to go so stay tuned.

The next few days will feature some of the coldest weather ever seen around here with overnight lows on Wednesday night, Thursday night, and Friday night likely in the lower-to-middle single digits in many spots. The last time Reagan Airport (DCA) officially recorded a below zero temperature was in January of 1994. This 3-day bitter cold spell will likely produce some record low temperatures in the Mid-Atlantic region as well as some record low high temperatures, and wind chills will be persistently below zero.
In addition to the bitter cold, there is the chance of an impact here this weekend by what looks like will become a powerful storm system somewhere near the eastern seaboard. This system will undergo dramatic intensification as it moves from the Outer Banks region to the western Atlantic Ocean and questions remain as to its ultimate path. The closer it comes to the coast, the bigger the impact in the I-95 corridor…the best chance for significant impacts as it stands right now will be along coastal sections of New Jersey/Delmarva Peninsula…stay tuned.

The cold weather pattern across the eastern US will continue for the next several days and it will get worse before it gets better. Low pressure will form over the Gulf region by the weekend, and it’ll then head northeastward to the western Atlantic off the Carolina coastline. On its back side, strong N-NW winds will form by the weekend around here and a bitter cold Arctic air outbreak will reach way down to the southeastern states.

While the eastern states suffer through Arctic cold, the western half of the nation will continue to experience relatively mild conditions. We’ll have moderately chilly conditions around here for the next few days and then it will become milder this weekend with highs likely to be well up in the 50’s on both days.
