Synopsis: A much cooler weather pattern is in store for us over the next few days. A disturbance will move through the region tonight and tomorrow bringing a round of showers with a possible snow shower or two. Much cooler temperatuers will follow this system. A relatively strong system will track along the East Coast this weekend, showers may be possible in the very eastern parts of the state. As we are caught in between systems conditions will be generally cool and cloudy.
Short term: The low pressure system to our west will continue to trek east bringing the Commonwealth a round of showers. A cold front associated with this system will move through the region during the day tomorrow. As this front passes a brief changeover to snow can be expected Thursday evening, especially in the mountains. Precipitation should clear out by Friday allowing for the sun to briefly peak out. A northwesterly flow will dominate the weather pattern, filtering in much cooler air from the north. Besides a brief stint at sun on Friday, cloudy skies should be dominant this weekend. On Saturday a shortwave will move across the Great Lakes, producing some potential snow showers in the northwestern regions of the state.
Long term: Mainly dry and cool conditions will dominate the forecast later this weekend and early next week. Winds will be generally coming out of northwest during this time period. This will produce generally cloudy conditions, as well as a possible lake effect snow shower.
