Tuesday ended up being quite chilly over central Virginia, as the high at Richmond International was only 42 and the low was 20! More cool, dry weather is expected in a rather quiet weather pattern the next couple of days. Temperatures will moderate to just above 50 degrees on Wednesday, with quite a few clouds around. A cold front will slide through the state at night, swinging the wind around to the north on Thursday.
Any rain Friday through the weekend?...
Originally we thought a storm may impact the area for the end of the work week, but the latest model data continues the trend of pushing the storm well south of us, therefore bringing no precipitation. Over the weekend, temperatures will be on the rise, well into the 50s. The next storm will head through the Great Lakes, way to our north and west...but swing a cold front through the Mid-Atlantic on Sunday. This will bring our next chances for rain. I don't think it will be the soaking we saw this past weekend, as the storm track is much different and very far to our north and west. However, numerous showers are likely Sunday afternoon and night.
The Christmas outlook and beyond...
It looks like Christmas 2007 will be a cold one...but dry. High pressure should dominate the region for the holiday, with a very cold air mass settling along the East Coast. It won't stick around all that long though. All signs point to a change in the pattern to finish the month, bringing much milder air to Virginia.
