Winter returns this week after mild weekend
We flirted with 60 degrees Saturday in a mild southwest flow. Behind a cold front, seasonably chilly weather returned Sunday, with readings in the upper 30s, under cloudy skies. Weak high pressure kept things dry but did not do much to break up the cloud cover.
A southern disturbance on the trailing end of the front will bring a few hours of rain late tonight south of I-70, ending as a wintry mix. A little snow may accumulate on the grass over hilly areas of southeast Ohio early Monday.
High pressure will build across southeastern Canada early in the week, feeding chillier air south, and holding afternoon readings to the mid-30s, with a mix of clouds and sun Monday and Tuesday.
A Pacific system will travel cross-country, with a shield of rain and snow (north) moving through the Southern states Tuesday to the Mid-Atlantic Coast Wednesday, potentially bringing portions of Ohio a light coating of snow. Heavier snow and wind will impact the Northeast, as a secondary low strengthens.
Seasonably cold and and dry conditions will follow behind the storm, with a gradual weekend warm-up.
