6:00 AM | **Moderation in temperatures today...moderately cold for the second half of the week...monitoring a Sunday mixed precipitation threat**

Paul Dorian

Temperatures will modify some today in the Mid-Atlantic region with the approach of a warm front and there can be a bit of rain later in the day or early tonight. Right on its heels, a cold front will pass through the area on Wednesday and its passage will ensure moderately cold conditions for the remainder of the week and weekend. In addition, the winds will pick up at mid-week with gusts to 30 mph or so and it’ll stay quite breezy on Thursday to go along with the moderately cold conditions. The weekend will likely present another storm system for the Mid-Atlantic region and it could feature a mixed bag of rain, sleet and/or snow during the second half.

Temperatures will modify some today in the Mid-Atlantic region with the approach of a warm front and there can be a bit of snow, ice and/or rain at times. Right on its heels, a cold front will pass through the area on Wednesday and its passage will ensure moderately cold conditions for the remainder of the week and weekend. In addition, the winds will pick up at mid-week with gusts to 30 mph or so and it’ll stay quite breezy on Thursday to go along with the moderately cold conditions.

**Finally, a moderation in temperatures...monitoring yet another late weekend storm threat for the Mid-Atlantic region**

Paul Dorian

The polar jet has dominated the scene in recent weeks typically extending all the way from western Canada into the northeastern US, but the sub-tropical jet is starting to show some life. This change in the overall weather pattern raises the prospects for moderation in temperatures across the northeastern states, some well-needed precipitation across many of the western states, and for the formation of storm systems that take a southern route across the southern states. By mid-week, a storm will head into California with some rainfall in low-lying areas and snow for mountainous areas, and then this low pressure system will re-emerge over the south-central states by the early part of the weekend...all of which will be aided by an activated sub-tropical jet stream.  

The southern storm system will take a turn to the northeast later in the weekend and head towards the Ohio Valley, but it will become increasingly influenced by strong ridging centered over the Hudson Bay region of Canada. As such, the northward progression of the surface low will grind to a halt over the Ohio Valley and the action will shift to the east so that by the end of the weekend, strong low pressure is liable to be located somewhere near the eastern seaboard. Temperatures may be borderline later this weekend in the I-95 corridor so this region could become a “battle zone” with respect to precipitation type with snow favored to the north and west and rain to the south and east.

6:00 AM | **After a bitter cold weekend, the new work week starts of with plenty of Arctic cold and single digit temperatures in many spots...moderation on Tuesday**

Paul Dorian

After a bitter cold weekend, the new work week starts off with plenty of Arctic cold in the Mid-Atlantic region with numerous single digit temperatures being observed. Temperatures modify on Tuesday and then a cold front arrives at mid-week assuring cold weather for the second half of the week, but not the extreme cold just experienced. The weekend will bring another storm threat to monitor with the possibility of mixed precipitation during the second half.

6:00 AM | ****Snow showers later today/tonight...watch for slick spots...intense cold this weekend with powerful and potentially damaging winds...wind chills of well below zero****

Paul Dorian

Intense cold this weekend with powerful and potentially damaging winds…

The combination of a clipper low pressure system and its associated cold front will produce snow showers in the area later today and tonight and there can be brief heavier snow bursts. Small accumulations are possible on the order of a coating to an inch and there can be slippery spots on the roadways. After the passage of the cold front, an Arctic air mass will plunge into the Mid-Atlantic region from eastern Canada leading to a bitter cold weekend. This Arctic air mass is the real deal, had its origins on the Siberian side of the North Pole, and will not have the usual modifying effects of crossing over the relatively warm Great Lakes. In addition to the bitter cold, biting winds will become a major factor on both weekend days with gusts of up to 55 mph producing dangerously low wind chill levels of well below zero and raising the possibility of power outages in some areas.
