Discussion

A weak cool front passed through the region in the overnight hours and we’ll be some 15 degrees cooler today as a result; however, it’ll still be well above normal for this time of year. High pressure from the Upper Midwest will build into the region today and remain in control of our weather on Saturday, but then moisture from the south-central US will make a push towards the Mid-Atlantic region during the second half of the weekend. Consequently, clouds will increase on Sunday and showers are quite likely around here by later Sunday night and on Monday. Looking ahead, the overall relatively mild weather pattern looks like it will continue for another week or so, but more cold air outbreaks are likely to return to the region later in the month.
