Tranquil, Cool First Weekend of December…

Synopsis:

High pressure over the central part of the country combined with strong low pressure in Eastern Canada will keep the winds busy through today.  By Sunday, the high will move over the region bringing and end to the brisk conditions. It will be dry and more seasonal for this time of the year with a mix of sun and clouds. A weak disturbance passing through the region Sunday night and early Monday morning will most likely result in a period of light snow for the region.  It doesn’t look like much, but a coating is quite possible in colder areas. Looking down the pike my eyes are on a low pressure system that will affect the area later Tuesday. Cold high pressure wants to hang on over the Northeast but the warm Southerly flow aloft will most likely prevail.  The other issue, the some computer guidance suggests the the bulk of the precipitation slides to the South and off the coast.  The chances of any snow are minimal at this time. With a mix to rain quite possible inland.  A significant season changing front will move into the area late week.  Plummeting temperatures and high winds are anticipated. Stay tuned.
