Discussion

Early morning rain began an active weather week in the Mid-Atlantic region and afternoon temperatures should pass the 50 degree mark as skies remain mostly cloudy. Moderately cold air will return by late tonight following a cold frontal passage and then we’ll have to watch a storm taking shape in the south-central states as it will head towards the Mid-Atlantic coastline at mid-week. This storm is likely to throw some rain our way late Wednesday that could then change to accumulating snow Wednesday night. High pressure will resume control for Thursday and Friday, but then a large upper-level trough will move to the east coast by the weekend generating a widespread cold air outbreak reaching as far south as Florida and it could help spawn a storm near the coast so we'll monitor that threat all week long.
