Ice Cold Coors


A wintry mix of sleet and snow fell Friday night over Coors Field in Denver, leading to a postponement of game 3 of the National League Division series between the Phillies and Rockies. Snow is not uncommon in Denver this time of year, but the extent of early snowfall and very cold temperatures in the Rockies has been very impressive. Loveland Ski Resort in Colorado opened earlier this week, marking its earliest start to the ski season in 40 years. The cold air mass will move east this week, bringing cooler air to the Mid-Atlantic by Friday.

Weather Update

Widely scattered showers are moving across the area this morning. Showers will become more isolated by early afternoon and then we will be completely dry by this evening. Temperatures will steadily drop from the mid 70s this morning into the upper 60s this afternoon as cooler air settles into the region. Sunday is shaping up to be a great day, enjoy!
