A cold front moved through the state Sunday evening, bringing a brief stall to our weekend warm-up. However, Monday afternoon will still be mild with temperatures reaching the upper 50's and 60's in much of the Commonwealth. High clouds continue to overspread the state from the West, as a large low pressure system moves through the Plains and allows moisture to surge ahead of it into the Eastern U.S. High pressure at the surface will remain in place over the Mid-Atlantic and Southeast through mid-week, and winds will remain Southerly across Virginia Monday through Wednesday aiding another warm-up back to highs in the 60's and 70's.
The potent storm system Zach mentioned in the previous blog entry still looks on track to impact our weather Wednesday evening, overnight, into early Thursday with rain and thunderstorms possible. That low is currently moving into the Southwest U.S. through California and Nevada, and we will be closely monitoring its development and progress through the Plains and Mississippi Valley region over the next couple of days, where it has the potential for severe weather.
