WEATHER ADVISORY:

An arctic cold front is expected to push through the region on Friday. This front will bring much colder weather, potentially record-breaking temperatures this weekend. Confidence is increasing in wintry precipitation occurring as early as Friday evening lasting through the weekend, though low confidence remains for the precipitation type and accumulations. Temperatures gradually warm closer to normal through Thursday. This warm-up will be cut short by the arrival of an Arctic front Friday. Stay tuned for updates!
