Discussion

High pressure pushes off the east coast today and this will allow for the return of the milder air into the Mid-Atlantic region for the next couple of days. Temperatures today and Wednesday will climb well up into the 60’s in much of the I-95 corridor, but then it’ll turn somewhat cooler on Thursday as low pressure forms in the Mid-Atlantic region. This low will likely generate a soaking rain event in the region from DC-to-Philly-to-NYC on Thursday before colder air returns behind it at the end of the week. While there can be a lingering shower or two on Friday, the more noticeable weather story as we close out the work week will be the strong NW winds and the renewed chill in the area. That late week chill will persist through the upcoming weekend and there will be a reinforcing shot of cold air by the early part of next week. In fact, November is looking more and more like it'll turn out to be a chilly month for this part of the country with wave after wave of cold air for this time of year.
