The unusually cold air pattern we've seen the past couple of days in the Washington area isn't going away anytime soon.
And on Thursday, we could add snow to the mix, according to NBC Washington meteorologist Tom Kierein.
A weak area of low pressure will be passing through Virginia south of Washington during the day on Thursday, Kierein said. That will likely spread some light snow through the region in the morning, with occasional light snow during the day.
How much could we get? Higher accumulations could occur 30-60 miles south of Washington, with accumulation of up to 2 inches. Less is expected in the immediate D.C. area -- perhaps a dusting to an inch.
The snow could start at dawn south and west of Washington in areas like the Shenandoah Valley and Charlottesville. The snow could arrive in the D.C. area a couple of hours after that.
Any snow that falls likely will stay around for a while, Kierein said, because there is no immediate break to the pattern of cold air that is racing into our region.
Another storm system may affect our area on Sunday, Kierein said.

The jet stream is never this far south!
Is it possible that pollution has "pushed" the jet stream? If so, is it possible that it could be done on purpose as a part of weather manipulation?

Its just Global warming you wacko Libs enjoy.
I know snow removal on the shore is similar to rocket science so everyone better get ready for bad road conditions and more accidents.
