April 11 Rain Expands Today Becoming Heavy Tonight Then Chilly Showers Tomorrow

April 11 2025

Friday Morning Report

Our storm day is upon us and needs a little explaining. This report has an updated forecast timeline for today and tomorrow, in addition to a live radar widget to compare.

The ingredients coming together that will develop this system will expand rain during the day across the Mid-Atlantic. The heaviest rain will develop during the afternoon through tonight.

Tomorrow will be chilly and damp, but the rain will taper to showers or drizzle.

Soggy ground may affect weekend plans for outdoor sports. The weather will improve Sunday as the storm moves away, and then we will get back to near 70F on Monday before another push of cold air.

The larger circulation is centered around the Mid-Atlantic and will be organizing all day.

This will develop rain that becomes steady and then heavy.

To the north, snow has been falling across New England and that may expand to the mountains of Northeast PA.

To the west is the core of the Chilly Air that will settle overhead tomorrow.

SATURDAY REGIONAL WEATHER

Saturday Morning

A chilly rain to start the day, while slushy snow may accumulate over the higher mountains… especially in the Poconos.

Saturday Afternoon

Rain showers may linger under the cold air. Not a washout, but the ground will be soggy from the day before.

Saturday Night

Rain showers may linger, but not a washout.

Sunday Morning

This storm should wind down and slip away as we end the weekend.

Rainfall Total

National Blend of Models

This brings most of our region over 1 inch in total.

Jet Stream Next Week

Monday Snapshot

This is the day that we can expect to reach 70F.

Monday to Wednesday

There will be one more push of cold air in the middle of the week. Perhaps this is the last one for a while and we can get back to spring locked in after this passes.

Wednesday Snapshot

This pocket of chilly air will be modified with more sunshine. Morning temps may drop to freezing inland, but it should not be as cold as this past week.

RESTATING MY MESSAGE ABOUT DYSLEXIA

I am aware there are some spelling and grammar typos and occasional other glitches. I take responsibility for my mistakes and even the computer glitches I may miss. I have made a few public statements over the years, but if you are new here, you may have missed it: I have dyslexia and found out during my second year at Cornell University. It didn’t stop me from getting my meteorology degree and being the first to get the AMS CBM in the Baltimore/Washington region. One of my professors told me that I had made it that far without knowing and to not let it be a crutch going forward. That was Mark Wysocki, and he was absolutely correct! I do miss my mistakes in my own proofreading. The autocorrect spell check on my computer sometimes does an injustice to make it worse. I also can make mistakes in forecasting. No one is perfect at predicting the future. All of the maps and information are accurate. The ‘wordy’ stuff can get sticky.  There has been no editor who can check my work while writing and to have it ready to send out in a newsworthy timeline. Barbara Werner is a member of the web team that helps me maintain this site. She has taken it upon herself to edit typos when she is available. That could be AFTER you read this. I accept this and perhaps proves what you read is really from me… It’s part of my charm. #FITF
