Yet another night with a Freeze Warning here in Central Virginia. Temperatures will get down into the upper 20s and lower 30s by sunrise. There were several record lows set in the Mid-Atlantic this morning, including Lynchburg, Wallops Island and Baltimore. Even though we'll start out cold tomorrow, the chill will ease a bit in the afternoon, with temperatures rising to around 60 degrees.
By the way, the snow on Saturday amounted to 1.0" at Richmond International Airport. That's three times what we received for the entire rest of the winter (0.3")!!
A few rain chances this week...
A storm system travelling to our northwest will throw some moisture our way on Wednesday, leading to a threat for showers later in the afternoon. There may be a few more passing showers early Thursday, although drier and milder air will work into the area to finish the work week. Another rain chance will come this weekend, but at this point it looks dry for the Strawberry Hill Races on Saturday. The rain chances will increase Saturday night into Sunday, when we may see some thunderstorms as well.
The longer term...
Behind the weekend system, another quick shot of chilly air is on tap early next week. It's still a little early to tell whether it will be as chilly as this last blast, and it should be somewhat brief. However, some quick temperture changes appear to be in order for the following week, with another shot of some rain around Thursday the 19th.
