Residents of the Mid-Atlantic are advised to brace for a series of weather systems set to sweep through the region, bringing a mix of rain, fog, and fluctuating temperatures over the next few days.
The National Weather Service has outlined a dynamic weather scenario, with a low-pressure system currently situated over east-central Virginia expected to track towards New England by tonight. Simultaneously, another area of low pressure is forecast to develop over the Southeast, moving up along the East Coast ahead of an approaching cold front from the Ohio River Valley. This combination of atmospheric conditions is likely to result in unsettled weather patterns across the region.
As of the latest observations, a swirl of low pressure has been identified over east-central Virginia, with a rain shield extending towards the Blue Ridge/Catoctin Mountains. Although the steady rain associated with this system is expected to diminish by mid to late morning, lingering clouds are anticipated, particularly over eastern areas, due to trapped moisture and light winds. Some additional rain showers may persist near northeastern Maryland as the system moves away.
Temperature differentials are also expected across the region, with areas southwest of the Potomac River likely to see high temperatures exceeding 70 degrees, while northeastern Maryland may experience temperatures holding in the 50s.
Looking ahead, tonight could see the development of areas of fog, possibly dense in some locations, especially where breaks in the clouds occur. Additionally, precipitation chances are forecast to increase towards daybreak as another weather system approaches from the Southeast and Ohio River Valley.
Tomorrow, the region is expected to experience rain, particularly after 1 p.m., accompanied by patchy fog in the morning hours. Temperatures are forecast to reach around 61 degrees Fahrenheit. Rainfall is expected to continue into Wednesday night before tapering off.
Looking ahead to weekend, rain is in the forecast Saturday and Sunday.

As residents along the East Coast brace for a bout of inclement weather, the National Weather Service predicts a series of low-pressure systems to impact the region throughout the week. The forecast indicates a complex weather pattern evolving, with the potential for rain and fog affecting various areas.
The current scenario delineates the presence of three distinct weather patterns across the area. East of the Blue Ridge Mountains, stratocumulus clouds have formed, accompanied by patches of fog in areas of clearing. Over the Shenandoah Valley and the I-81 corridor, clearing skies have led to the development of dense fog. Meanwhile, west of I-81 toward the Appalachian Mountains, high clouds dominate the sky, with patches of low-level clouds observed.
Throughout the day, as low pressure develops off the coast of the Carolinas, high clouds are expected to expand from the south. Daytime heating, coupled with light onshore flow, will likely sustain or even augment the presence of stratocumulus clouds, resulting in a mostly cloudy day for many regions. As a consequence, temperatures are anticipated to hover on the cooler side of the spectrum.
Moving into tonight, the low-pressure system near the Carolinas will gradually drift northward, bringing rain to the region. Patchy fog is expected to develop after 11 pm, particularly in areas affected by rainfall. Temperatures are forecasted to dip, with lows around 47 degrees. The chance of precipitation is estimated at 80%, with new rainfall amounts projected to range between a quarter and half of an inch.
On Tuesday, we’ll see continued rainfall, with the possibility of patchy fog persisting into the early hours. As the day progresses, skies are expected to gradually clear, transitioning to mostly sunny conditions. However, a slight chance of rain remains in the forecast for Tuesday night, with mostly cloudy skies prevailing.

Another round of weather challenges is in store today as a robust cold front approaches. The front will bring gusty winds and low relative humidity. The National Weather Service has issued several advisories and warnings, urging caution and preparedness.
The primary concern today is the heightened risk of wildfires, particularly in northern and central Virginia, where a Red Flag Warning is effective from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. An Elevated Fire Danger Statement is also anticipated for eastern West Virginia, extreme northern Virginia, and the Washington D.C. metro area. While not reaching the criteria for a Red Flag Warning, these areas remain under close observation due to the potential for fire spread.
West of Interstate 81, westerly winds are expected to sustain speeds between 20-35 mph, with gusts up to 50 mph, leading to possible isolated tree damage and power outages. The highest gusts are forecasted within the downslope zone east of the Allegheny Front.
A reinforcing cold front and shortwave trough will pass through the area later in the day, bringing limited moisture in mountain upslope snow showers over the Allegheny Front. However, precipitation amounts are expected to be light, with minimal impact apart from a dusting to perhaps an inch of snow across extreme western Maryland and eastern West Virginia.
Despite the windy conditions, temperatures are forecasted to be relatively mild, with highs reaching the upper 50s and low 60s. Tonight, expect mostly clear skies with temperatures dropping to around 32°F, accompanied by north winds at 10-16 mph.
Looking ahead, Thursday will bring calmer conditions with sunny skies and a high near 51 degrees. Thursday night will remain mostly clear, with temperatures around 31 degrees. By Friday, temperatures will rise slightly, with mostly sunny conditions persisting and a high near 56 degrees.

As high pressure settles back into the region, locals can expect brisk winds and cooler temperatures for the remainder of the day. The National Weather Service reports that today will see sunny skies with a high near 49, although northwest winds may gust up to 25 mph, adding a chill to the air. Tonight, temperatures will drop to around 30 degrees under mostly clear skies, with winds becoming light and variable after midnight.
However, the reprieve from precipitation will be short-lived. High pressure is set to slide offshore by Friday, paving the way for increasing cloud cover and rising precipitation chances as an area of low pressure moves through the area on Saturday. Friday is expected to be mostly cloudy with a high near 52, and rain is likely to begin Friday night, with lows around 40 and a 90% chance of precipitation, according to forecasts.
Saturday will see continued rain, mainly before 1 p.m., with a high near 57. While the rain is expected to taper off by early afternoon, cloudy conditions are likely to persist throughout the day, driven by a north wind around 7 mph. Overall, there’s a 70% chance of precipitation on Saturday.
Looking ahead, drier conditions are forecasted to return on Sunday and Monday, accompanied by unseasonably mild temperatures. However, a new weather system looms on the horizon for the middle of next week, with a cold front and strong low-pressure system expected to bring additional rain chances to the area.
Finally, this is the last weather forecast sponsored by our friends at Water’s End Brewery. You’ll hear more about them soon. However, we wanted to stop and thank them for bringing you the weather for the past two months.

The National Weather Service issues alerts for widespread showers, gusty winds, and the possibility of thunderstorms later today. The forecast indicates that a robust cold front is set to sweep through the region, impacting various areas including northern Virginia and Maryland.
According to meteorologists, the front is expected to approach the area in the afternoon, with precipitation becoming more widespread as the day progresses. While the morning might see a few breaks in the clouds, conditions will rapidly change with the arrival of the front. Temperatures are forecasted to rise quickly into the mid to upper 60s, possibly hitting 70 degrees, before the front’s passage.
Anticipated wind patterns are also a cause for concern, as southerly winds are forecasted to increase to speeds of 10 to 15 mph, with gusts ranging from 25 to 35 mph during the morning into midday. The heaviest precipitation is expected later in the afternoon and evening, with forecasters predicting a window between 3 to 8 p.m. Thunderstorm probabilities are deemed low but not negligible, with a marginal risk for severe weather issued for certain areas.
In addition to the precipitation, the cold front’s passage will prompt a swift change in wind direction, shifting from southerly to northwesterly. This transition will bring about a shift in precipitation type, with rain showers switching to brief snow showers over mountainous regions. While snow accumulation is expected to be light, with only a coating to perhaps an inch, residents are urged to remain cautious, especially in elevated areas above 2500 feet.
As the night progresses into Thursday, winds are anticipated to intensify further, with gusts of 45 to 50 mph expected across the region. High elevations and mountain gaps may experience even stronger gusts, potentially nearing 60 mph, prompting the issuance of a High Wind Warning for certain areas. Wind advisories have been issued to cover the broader threat of strong winds, starting Wednesday evening and extending into early Thursday morning.

A day of dynamic weather lies ahead as a low-pressure system barrels into the region, promising scattered showers and unseasonably mild temperatures.
The National Weather Service alerts that a low-pressure system from the Midwest, accompanied by a warm front, is set to sweep through the area, triggering scattered showers and potential thunderstorms. The system is expected to bring scattered showers starting late morning, mainly north of I-66 and US-50, with precipitation becoming more widespread across the area by early afternoon. While the risk of thunderstorms remains low for the day, gusty winds ranging from 25 to 30 mph are anticipated, adding to the atmospheric turbulence.
Overnight, although there might be a temporary lull in precipitation, the warm front lifting through the region could reignite scattered showers, mainly north of the Mason-Dixon line and across the Appalachian Mountains. There’s even a slight chance of thunderstorms accompanying these showers, contributing to the unsettled weather pattern.
Remarkably mild temperatures for late February are forecasted, with overnight lows hovering in the mid-50s, a staggering 25 degrees above normal. Gusty southerly winds will accompany these warm temperatures, further enhancing the sense of a strange weather event.
Looking ahead, Wednesday is poised to bring more weather disruptions, with showers likely and the possibility of thunderstorms, mainly after 1 p.m. Temperatures are expected to soar to about 74 degrees, maintaining the unseasonably warm trend. However, a cold front is anticipated to pass through the region Wednesday night, bringing cooler temperatures on Thursday as dry high-pressure returns.

A frontal system is expected to bring unsettled weather conditions through this afternoon, according to the National Weather Service. Temperatures range from the mid-40s to low 50s in this area, while cooler temperatures in the mid-30s to low 40s prevail to the north, accompanied by patchy fog due to trapped moisture and light winds.
As the day progresses, an upstream cold front will move through the area, resulting in west-northwesterly winds that should dissipate any lingering fog. Some shower development is possible from I-95 eastward during the late morning to mid-afternoon hours, with temperatures remaining mild in the mid to upper 50s. However, cooler temperatures are expected over higher terrain and northeastern Maryland, with highs in the low 50s and 40s, respectively. Gusts up to 25 to 30 mph are possible in mountainous areas.
Heading into the evening, showers are forecasted, continuing overnight over the Alleghenies. Colder air arriving at night may lead to light snow accumulations, primarily in mountainous regions, with lows generally in the 30s for most of the area and mid to upper 20s along the Allegheny Front.
Weekend Outlook: Chilly Start with Tranquil Conditions
On Saturday, the favorable upslope flow will persist, bringing additional light snow to the Alleghenies, with storm total snow amounts likely ranging from a trace to an inch. A shortwave trough tracking from the lower Ohio Valley to the Carolinas may spread light to moderate precipitation across the Potomac Highlands toward I-64, with 1 to 2 inches of snow expected over the central Blue Ridge.
Chilly conditions will prevail throughout the day, with temperatures largely in the 40s and north-northwesterly winds gusting up to 20 to 25 mph. Skies will be mostly cloudy, though some sunshine is possible late in the day.
Sunday will see tranquil conditions as high pressure builds, bringing more sunshine to the area. Southerly winds will lead to milder temperatures, especially west of the Blue Ridge and Catoctin Mountains, with highs around 5 to 10 degrees above Saturday’s temperatures. Clouds will increase later in the evening ahead of the next cold front, with some light precipitation possible in the Alleghenies, mainly as snow for the highest ridgetops. Lows will be in the 30s across the area.
Overall, residents can expect a mix of precipitation and mild temperatures today, followed by a chilly start to the weekend with improving conditions and milder temperatures by Sunday.
