The cold air will then quickly begin to spread into the area in
the
wake of the
front on Monday with temperatures falling through
the day. Thereafter, temperatures will be well below
normal
through the week. While the exact magnitude of the cold is still a
bit uncertain at this juncture, highs are
likely to remain in the
30s and 40s through the week with lows well into the low to mid
20s with areas of teens
likely by Thursday into Friday morning.
While these conditions certainly won`t threaten any records, it
will still be the coldest temperatures in about a year. Even
larger uncertainty remains regarding any potential for wintry
precipitation late next week, and as mentioned in previous
discussions, many factors have to align perfectly for any chance
of frozen precipitation in the Southeast. Still, if features do
align and a Gulf low is able to take advantage of sufficient
moisture (as now hinted at in models late next week), wintry
precipitation would be possible. While it remains far too early to
pinpoint any of this potential, continue to stay attuned to the
forecast over the coming days.
