LONG TERM (Sunday through next Wednesday)...
The bulk of this period will feature anomalously negative 500mb
heights over the eastern CONUS, which correlates to cold, dry
conditions at the surface. For now the global model consensus keeps
the bulk of the arctic air north and east of our forecast area, but
it will still be quite cool and dry compared to our recent weather.
The coldest period will likely be Tuesday and Wednesday, with highs
only in the 50s (despite plenty of sunshine) and lows Wednesday
around freezing. How widespread and severe this freeze may be
depends on several details that won`t be resolved for a few
days.
