.DISCUSSION...
Canadian high pressure will slowly exit toward the Atlantic coast
through tonight. At the same time, a cold front is expected to
approach from the Great Lakes before crossing the region early
Friday. A gradual warm up ensues during the middle to latter
portions of the week, with storm chances returning by Thursday.
High pressure crosses the northeastern U.S. on Saturday before a
frontal system remains nearby on Sunday into early next week. This
brings increasing shower chances across the area.
