Clear & Chilly This Morning

Temperatures have fallen early Thursday morning into the 30's in much of the Commonwealth as a result of clearing skies overnight, calm winds, and drier air settling into the Mid-Atlantic from a strong area of high pressure. Here are the 6:30 a.m. temperatures:

You can see the high pressure area parked right over Virginia this morning as well:

The low pressure system you see tracking through south-central Canada right now is going to bring a cold front into our state by early Saturday, with a chance for showers Friday evening into Saturday morning. Overall rain chances are very low, but it does look like we'll have some scattered light rain showers around Central Virginia Friday late afternoon and evening into Saturday morning while the front is tracking through. This front will also bring another shot of cooler air into the Mid-Atlantic, which will drop our high temperatures back into the 60's to around 70 degrees on Saturday, and holding in the 60's Sunday.
