The chill sticks around for another day in the Mid-Atlantic region, but it’ll be much easier to take as winds will be pretty much non-existent in the area with high pressure nearby. Temperatures will rebound well up into the 50’s by the end of the week and the second half of the weekend should feature 70+ degrees for highs. There are a couple of weak systems heading our way for the late week and upcoming weekend and each can bring some shower activity to the region.

A strong cold front passed through the region late last evening and ushered in a colder-than-normal air mass for mid-March and temperatures today will struggle to climb past 40 degrees. The front produced some high wind gusts in the area with 68 mph being recorded at Reagan National Airport (DCA) and 66 mph at Dulles Airport (IAD). The DCA observation of 68 mph was the highest wind gust recorded there since May 2019, and the third highest seen during the past 30 years. The winds will remain rather strong adding to the chill in the air and there can be a snow shower that makes its way into the I-95 corridor. It stays chilly at mid-week, but temperatures rebound by the end of the week with high temperatures back up in the 60’s.

The overall pattern will feature dry, windy and increasingly warm weather conditions as we go through the week and into the upcoming weekend...all of which will exacerbate wildfire danger. There is also a chance for all-time March high temperatures to be reached at the end of the week and/or early part of the weekend with the middle 80’s on the table.

There is an unusually high risk of severe weather in parts of the Mid-Atlantic region from today into the late evening hours with numerous ingredients coming together. The severe weather risk will include all the following weather parameters: downpours, localized flooding, damaging winds, lightning, hail, isolated tornadoes and power outages are all on the table. Multiple rounds of showers and thunderstorms are likely into the late evening hours and severe weather can develop with any of these bands from mid-day on through the late evening. Much colder air pours into the Mid-Atlantic region in the overnight hours and temperatures will be well below normal on Tuesday and lows tomorrow night can bottom out near the 20-degree mark in some suburban locations. The Great Lakes “snow machine” will be turned on as well on Tuesday with numerous snow bands likely just downstream and a few snow showers can make it into the I-95 corridor.

Another intense cold front is headed towards the eastern seaboard and it will bring us periods of rain today, heavy at times, and there is an enhanced chance for strong-to-severe thunderstorms...tornadoes are on the table. Winds will be quite strong ahead of the front gusting to 45 mph or so from a southerly direction and they’ll flip to a west-to-northwest direction later tonight following the passage of the front and remain very strong. Much colder air will pour into the Mid-Atlantic region overnight and rain showers could change to snow showers in some areas. Temperatures on Tuesday will be far below-normal for this time of year and the winds will remain quite strong and there can be a couple of snow showers as the “Great Lakes snow machine” gets turned on. The chill sticks around at mid-week with a gradual warmup later in the week.
