Synopsis:.
Most areas the next few days will be dealing with a Spring preview. The only exception will be those coastal areas that remain socked in with low clouds and fog with a cooler wind off the Atlantic. A southwest wind will prevail boosting the mercury some twenty degrees above average today though Saturday with high pressure off the Southeast coast pumping up the warmth. A cold front will approach on Saturday with periods of rain-most likely in the afternoon.
Colder temperatures will make a comeback by Sunday.
Looking ahead no major cold blasts or storms are in sight as we flip the calendar from February to March.
