A weak disturbance will bring a chance for showers in the southern counties of the region this morning, but the afternoon is expected to see a mix of sun and clouds with highs in the 50s to around 60 degrees. Winds could gust up to 30 mph this afternoon. Overnight, the skies will start mostly cloudy but end up mostly clear, with lows in the mid-40s due to a continued southwest wind. The warm and breezy weather is expected to continue on Tuesday, with the potential for the area to see record high temperatures. However, a more active weather pattern is on the way, with a chance of snow showers up north on Tuesday morning and a wintry mix arriving Tuesday night into Wednesday.
Why it matters
This warm, breezy weather is a departure from the typical early March conditions in the region, and could set new record highs on Monday. However, the calm weather is expected to give way to a more active pattern later in the week, which could bring the potential for wintry precipitation and travel impacts.
The details
The warm and breezy conditions are being driven by a southwest wind that will push in warmer air. Highs on Monday are forecast to reach 63 degrees, which would break the previous record of 60 degrees set just last year. The warmer weather is expected to continue on Tuesday, but a disturbance moving in could bring a chance of snow showers up north in the morning. A more widespread wintry mix is then expected to arrive Tuesday night into Wednesday.
