Still Cool; Lingering Clouds & Showers

The remnants of Ian have moved east, just off the Va coast. We're left with some lingering clouds through tonight with a few spotty showers or drizzle. Tomorrow, decreasing clouds lead to warmer temperatures. Mostly sunny skies, and gradually warming temperatures will be the story through Thursday.

Forecast Discussion

What's left of Ian has slid just off the Va coast, however, we're still in a moist northerly flow resulting in cool temperatures and lingering clouds with spotty showers or drizzle overnight.

A high currently over the great lakes will take over our weather beginning Monday, clearing the skies. This will lead to a gradual warm-up back to normal, and lots of sunshine. By Thursday, the high will be centered over the southern Appalachians.

On Friday, a moisture-starved front approaches from the northwest. We may see partly cloudy skies Friday afternoon and Saturday morning, and we cannot rule out a shower overnight, but most areas will remain dry.

A Canadian high takes over afterward, with chilly results.
