Friday February 23 2018
A band of rain already moved through this morning, but the good news is that the heaviest rain is moving out… for now. We are in a cool and damp pattern that will send more rain our way through the weekend. There is another push of warmer air, but it will be slow to return. This afternoons temperatures are likely to stay in the the 40s while western Virginia and perhaps western Maryland could get back to the 70s.
