High pressure is in control of the weather as we begin the week and temperatures today will be moderately chilly across the Mid-Atlantic region. An Arctic cold front will pass through during the evening hours and it’ll usher in another very cold air mass for the next few days. Temperatures this afternoon will peak near 45 degrees, but likely be confined to 30 degrees for highs on Tuesday and a stiff wind will make it feel even colder than the actual air temperature. It’ll remain colder-than-normal on Wednesday and Thursday as well and then there will be moderation in temperatures late in the week.

A relatively quiet next few days and generally on the dry side across the Denver metro area. It starts off moderately cold today and turns quite cold tonight, but a warming trend will bring high temperatures to the lower 50’s by Thursday afternoon. It looks to turn much colder again by the upcoming weekend and the chance of snow will return to the Colorado region.

After producing a major impact today on the southern states with significant snow and ice, the low pressure system responsible will head to the coastal waters of the Carolinas by early tomorrow. While support in the upper-atmosphere will be limited for the surface low in terms of its ability to generate significant upward motion, snow is likely to overspread our region late tonight and continue into early Saturday morning. Small accumulations are likely by the time it winds down early Saturday on the order of a coating to an inch. High pressure will follow for the rest of the weekend with a reinforcing cold air mass pushing into the Mid-Atlantic region.

Very cold air penetrated all the way down to the Gulf coast region during the past couple of days and it set the stage for significant snow and ice across much of the southern US including right here in the Huntsville metro region. Low pressure will head slowly to the east-to-northeast on Friday over the northern Gulf states bringing snow and ice here with several inches on the table (3-6”). This system will push to the east-northeast of here by Friday night ushering in a reinforcing cold air mass into the Tennessee Valley region for the upcoming weekend.

This cold and active weather pattern will result in another storm system in the short-term and this one will have a major impact on the southern states from New Mexico to the Carolinas with significant snow and disruptive ice. Low pressure will begin to organize over the Texas Gulf coast later today which is much farther to the south compared to the storm system earlier this week that originated over the central Plains. Cold air has penetrated all the way down to the Gulf coast setting the stage for this potentially crippling winter weather event in many southern locations.
This low pressure will push slowly to the east-northeast on Friday from the Deep South to the coastal waters of North Carolina by early Saturday and then continue on a track to the east-northeast of there into the open waters of the western Atlantic. While support in the upper atmosphere will be somewhat limited for the surface low pressure system, accumulating snow is likely to overspread the DC-to-Philly-to-NYC corridor on Friday night and continue into Saturday morning with a coating to as much as 2-3 inches possible in some areas.

Our cold and unsettled pattern will continue for the next few days with some more snow possible this morning and again on Saturday. Temperatures will drop to very low levels once again late tonight with overnight lows in the upper single digits in many spots. The overall colder-than-normal weather pattern will continue through the weekend and into at least the middle of next week.

The main weather story today will be the wind with gusts possible of 50 mph making it feel much colder than the actual air temperatures. In fact, wind chill levels can drop to below-zero at times of the highest wind gusts...not a day to stay outside for long stretches. The powerful NW winds are being generated by a tight pressure gradient between strong low pressure over Nova Scotia and high pressure building across the middle of the nation.
Elsewhere, low pressure will get organized later today over the northwestern Gulf of Mexico. Cold air has penetrated deep into the southern states and this combination will lead to significant snow and ice from Texas to the Carolinas during the next couple of days. That same low pressure will head northeast and likely reach the coastal waters of the southern Mid-Atlantic by mid-day Saturday. It will be a relatively weak system for us likely producing a light snow event from late Friday night into early Saturday on the order of a coating to a couple of inches. High pressure and more cold air returns to the region for the early part of next week.
A bit of good news to wrap up…spring training is only 33 days away.
