Sunny, Cold

It's very cold this morning with temperatures running in the mid 20s. A messy upper air pattern will begin to evolve today as a strong trough pivots over the Eastern Seaboard and a shortwave trough ejects out of the Four Corners. Weak energy will emanate from the trough in the West and move in our general direction tonight. We should get through the daylight hours with an abundant supply of sunshine, but it will be chilly as a Canadian high pressure dominates. Highs should top out around 49 this afternoon, which will be 15 degrees below normal. A few high clouds will increase before midnight in advance of subtle upper level disturbances approaching the area. However, the strength of this air mass should still allow lows to dip down to 28. If you're tired of the cold weather, hang tight because it looks like a warmer weather pattern will develop in the next 10 days.
