DAYS 1-5 (FEBRUARY 12-16)
\nA cold front has moved offshore but moisture riding up the back side of this front is keeping some cloudiness over the region and some rain shower activity near the South Coast to start the day. A drying trend will eliminate the showers and eventually the cloudiness later today. High pressure moves across the region Tuesday with fair and seasonably chilly weather. The high will move offshore Wednesday allowing a warm up but also more cloudiness in response to warming of the air above us as well. We’ll be fully in the warm sector by Thursday but a disturbance will bring rain showers to start the day. Another cold front will move through on Friday, sending temperatures downward again.

DAYS 6-10 (FEBRUARY 17-21)
\nLarge scale pattern will feature building high pressure over the US Southeast. Brief shot of cold air comes out of Canada as surface high pressure moves in early in the period for fair and colder weather then a moderating trend during the weekend of February 17-18 then returning moisture and low pressure tracking north of the region February 19 (Presidents Day) may bring some rain showers to the region. Current thinking is fair but very mild weather later in the period as colder air is stuck up in Canada due to the Southeast ridge.<\/p>\n
DAYS 11-15 (FEBRUARY 22-26)
\nSome up and down temps but the overall pattern should be milder than average with no major storminess as it looks now, as a result of the Southeast ridge being strong enough to keep colder air in Canada from becoming dominant.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
