This week will certainly be milder across the region, with most days featuring temperatures of 50+ in the afternoon. In the near term, a cold front approaching the area will bring a round of showers Tuesday evening through early Wednesday morning. Behind this front, gusty breezes will usher in a brief shot of cooler air on Thursday.
End of the week rain, then a nice weekend...
Another storm will affect the Mid-Atlantic on Friday. Its track will be north and west of us, which will help to usher in milder air again from the south. Rain will overspread the region on Friday, but be gone in time for the upcoming weekend...which looks rather nice, with ample sunshine and afternoon temperatures in the pleasant 50s. A mild start to February...
The longer range...any colder weather?
Down the road, the longer range computer models show another system impacting us on February 5th/6th, with somewhat colder air behind it. The cold looks like it may gradually return over the weekend of the 9th and 10th, but it certainly doesn't come in full force. The GFS model shows a close call with a coastal system on the 9th...something to certainly keep an eye on in the days to come. There is a core of very cold air building to the north over Canada and eventually that will probably slide south...so it could be a much colder second half of February. As always, stay tuned...
