Here is a truncated weather report for today.
OUTLOOK
A cold front will approach the area Sunday and settle over
the region Monday into Tuesday, bringing a prolonged period of
widespread shower activity. High pressure centered over New England
will extend down into our region Wednesday through Friday as an
upper-level low persists to our west. The pattern will support a
continued fetch of Atlantic moisture into the area and keep shower
chances in place into next Saturday, when the upper-low finally
starts to weaken.
