Southerly winds returned Tuesday, ushering warmer air back into Central Virginia before a storm system began tracking through the East. This storm system is yet another in a series of record-setting winter weather storms to move through the Midwest and Northeast in the past couple of weeks. Early Wednesday morning, freezing rain and a wintry mix were affecting the Northeast U.S., with rain showers moving through Central Virginia. It was the southerly wind that ushered in warmer temperatures and protected Central Virginia from a freezing rain threat Wednesday morning. Rain chances will increase overnight into early Christmas Morning as the cold front moves through Virginia, but most of the rain will move southeast by late Christmas Morning.
With the rain and winter weather in the Northeast, and also on the West Coast, you may need to check travel information if you plan to fly the next several days. You can get updates on airport delays at this link: http://www.fly.faa.gov/flyfaa/plaintext.html
