Cold, Gusty Start Across Northeast and Midwest as Brief Tuesday Wintry Mix Looms

A quick-moving system may mix rain and snow during the morning commute for parts of the Great Lakes, then temperatures trend milder with rain returning late week.

Overview

  • North and East start the week windy and cold, with frequent 30–40+ mph gusts driving wind chills into the 20s and light lake or mountain snow lingering in northern New England.
  • Dry, breezy conditions in the Mid-Atlantic raise fire spread concerns around the BaltimoreD.C. region despite highs only in the 40s.
  • A compact disturbance early Tuesday brings a rain–snow mix to portions of the Great Lakes and Ohio Valley before transitioning to light rain, with little to no accumulation expected for most.
  • Midweek turns quieter and milder, with highs trending into the 50s by Thursday and Friday in many areas.
  • Another round of rain is most likely late week from Thursday night into Friday, while Central Florida stays warm near 80–82 degrees with patchy morning fog at times.
