A seasonably chilly night is on tap across central Virginia, with mainly clear skies and light winds. Temperatures will lower into the low and mid 30s early tomorrow morning. A much milder afternoon is on the way tomorrow, as a southwest breeze will pick up with high pressure inching off the Southeast coast. With plenty of sunshine, temperatures should soar into the mid and upper 60s during the afternoon. There won't be any weather issues for travelers along the East Coast either, so it's shaping up to be a pleasant finish to the long holiday weekend.
Changes in our weather will be quick this coming week. On Monday, a cold front will sweep in from the west bringing another round of showers. High pressure will follow on Tuesday, bringing the sun back with a surge of cooler air (highs in the mid 50s). Then a more significant storm will take shape along the Gulf Coast and impact the Mid-Atlantic Wednesday and Thursday. The storm will track from Louisiana on Wednesday morning to the northern Mid-Atlantic by Thursday morning. A cool wedge will be in place Wednesday, keeping temperatures in the low 50s at best as rain arrives. As the storm moves north by Wednesday evening, temperatures will probably hold steady or rise just a bit. More showers are likely on Thursday and the wind will turn to the north and then northwest, pulling in another shot of chilly air to finish out the work week.
As of now, next weekend looks dry but on the chilly side with afternoon highs in the lower 50s and overnight lows at or below the freezing mark.
