Prolonged Northeast dry stretch to come to an end later this week

Even as a powerful winter storm moves out of the Southeast this week, high pressure will remain in control of the Midwest and Northeast, maintaining clear and calm weather conditions.

High temperatures will struggle to reach normal levels, instead topping out 5-10 F below average each afternoon.

By the end of the week, another storm gathering strength in the South will set its sights on the northeastern U.S.

According to Thompson, this system is not expected to bring widespread wintry weather.

"With the cold air moving out toward the end of the week, the next storm moving into the East will bring primarily rain," he said.

"In fact, there is the potential for a few inches of rain along portions of the Eastern Seaboard from Friday into Friday night, which can lead to flooding."
