Wednesday Morning 4/9 OK...enough is enough already...we have low clouds, fog and drizzle again this morning. However, things will be changing by this Afternoon. High pressure in New England will move further to the East and we have a cold front approaching from the West. Those two things should turn the surface winds to the South later Today. That means the clouds will break up a little and the temps will have a chance to jump. On Thursday, that weak cold front will move though here...with a slight chance for showers...and stall. With the mixing of the atmosphere, we'll have temps back in the 60s at least...maybe some low 70s. The question for Friday is: Where does that front go? I'm not completely convinced we'll be on the "warm side" of that front. Friday is one of those days where it could be 75 or 55. Either way, The Big Chill will be back by the tail end of the weekend...more about that later.  ¶ 8:31 AM 0 Comments

  Tuesday Morning 4/8 Well, not much is going to change Today...we'll still have an East wind and that means low clouds, fog & drizzle. Highs will be stuck in the 50s again. The pattern will break...I think....by Wednesday. A weak cold front will be approaching from the West. As that gets closer, in the Afternoon, the surface winds should turn to the South. We might start with the fog & drizzle again in the Morning, but some sunshine should break through later in the day. That cold front will move through here on Thursday with a few scattered showers then stall. The position of that front will determine the temps at the end of the week....it could be in the 70s or the 50s...a few miles either way, will make that huge difference.

  Monday Morning 4/7 It doesn't look like this weather set up is going to change for a while....low clouds, fog & drizzle. Why? It's the East wind, of course. High pressure will continue to stretch down the East Coast from New England...this will keep the low level flow off the water and all of that moisture will bank up against the mountains. The situation will begin to change by the middle of the week. On Wednesday, the High will move a little further to the East and that will turn our surface winds to the South. We should get the temps back into the 60s. The end of the week looks active though...rain will be back in the forecast by Thursday & Friday.

  Sunday Morning 4/6 It's not going to be a great close to the weekend....an area of Low pressure will be moving off the DelMarVa coast later Today. As it pulls away, the rain should come to an end in most areas by early this Afternoon. It will stay cloudy though, and with the winds coming out of the NNE, the temps will only climb into the low 50s. High pressure will move in behind the storm and anchor itself up in New England for the next few days. That means that we will have a low level flow out of the East. I don't think we'll see any rain for the start of the work week, but there will be plenty of clouds and may be some fog Monday & Tuesday. This will also keep the temps below normal for a while. We'll be back into the 60s by the end of the week.  ¶ 7:30 AM 0 Comments

  Saturday Morning 4/5 Another complicated forecast this weekend...we should end up with mostly dry conditions Today though. A cold front will move into Southern VA by this Afternoon....NW winds behind the front will keep it quiet for a while. However, a strong area of Low pressure is organizing along the Gulf Coast. The Low will ride up along the stalled front and come through here by Sunday Morning. We'll see increasing clouds Overnight and a good chance for rain after Midnight. The storm will move off the DelMarVa Coast on Sunday...I think there will be some rain in the morning, but I'll be optimistic and say that we'll dry out for the end of the day. With a NE flow around the top of the storm, it will stay chilly...Highs will only be in the Low to Mid 50s.  ¶ 5:20 AM 0 Comments

  Friday Morning 4/4 Another tough call with the temps Today...I'm not so sure we'll make into the "warm sector" of the storm system until Tonight. We have an area of Low pressure that will be moving out of Ohio and into Central PA this Afternoon....in that position, our surface winds should pick up out of the South and scour out this chilly air mass late in the day. As the storm passes to our North, it will drag a cold front through here by early Saturday Morning. Showers and T-storms are possible Tonight....they should end after the front goes by. The problem is that the front stalls down in VA Saturday. I think it will be far enough away for some dry weather during the day, but most of the computer models develop another area of Low pressure on that front by Saturday Night. That storm will stay South of us, but be close enough for a chance for showers Saturday Night and Sunday Morning. High pressure will take control after that, with dry conditions for Sunday Afternoon and Monday.  ¶ 8:35 AM 0 Comments

  Thursday Morning 4/3 We have a complicated weather scenario setting up here for the end of the week....let's start with Today. High pressure will be sliding off the coast and some warm air, in the upper levels, will be riding over the top of our chilly air mass at the surface. This will result in an increase in the clouds and some rain by the end of the day. The thermal profile of the atmosphere could support a little sleet this Evening as well. Overrunning rain will continue Overnight as a warm front goes through by early Friday Morning. At the same time, an area of Low pressure will be coming out of Ohio into Southern PA. This means we should get into the warm sector of the storm...Highs will get back into the 60s Friday, but there is still a chance for showers and possibly a t-storm. As the Low moves into the NE, a cold front will stall just South of DC on Saturday. This should keep things unsettled for the start of the weekend as well.  ¶ 8:23 AM 0 Comments
