Discussion

A strong cold front passed through the region last night and temperatures will trend downward during the next couple of days along with rain-free conditions. On Friday, yet another soaking rain event is likely to take place in the Mid-Atlantic region as low pressure pulls out of the southern states and heads right in our direction. That late week low pressure system will usher in a colder-than-normal air mass for the weekend and there will likely be a reinforcing shot of cold air by the middle of next week. The transition time period between the “initial” shot of cold air this weekend and the mid-week shot is likely to feature a strong coastal storm that may very well result in another soaking rain event for the I-95 corridor and perhaps some snow for interior sections of the Northeast US.
