[forkyfork]

dc/va/pa/md is seeing drops from the low 60's through the 40's

I have a flight out of ABE this afternoon. I would prefer said line is well into NJ by then.

I love fronts like this with pretty huge temp gradients, watching the thermometer dip as the front passes is pretty cool.

Nice temp contrast in the space of < 100 miles, pre-front vs. post-front.

intensifying

[Quakertown needs snow]

find the cold front

[weatherwiz]

Pretty decent pressure gradient setting up across the region as well which should continue to help enhancing the winds as well.

Will be interesting to see some of the obs from stations affected by the line, I would think that line would be capable of producing some pretty strong gusts (50-60 mph)...wonder if we potentially see a watch issued soon if the strengthening continues.
