Hi, this is Bidi Roger Steve Pelleterian. I am the Weatherman. Thanks for checking in to the WeathermanPond.com on your Friday. It is the ninth day of January, 2026. And so far, the first five days of this month across the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast were well below normal temperature-wise. And since that time, it's been a flip. And now it's been well above normal. It's going to be another above-normal day today. As a matter of fact, uh mostly cloudy in many spots along the eastern seaboard, but uh say from central Ohio eastward into Pennsylvania, you're going to have areas of rain. And that will most likely slide off towards the north and east. Expecting mostly cloudy skies for your Fridays. The temperatures reach the middle 50, so well above normal. Normal high should be around the upper 30. So we're doing about a good 15 degrees above that. Now for tonight, there will be some showers as the warm front moves through. Then another area of low pressure now forming across northern Louisiana will be arriving in mid-Atlantic and northeast. And give us rain during the afternoon and evening on Saturday. Saturday's high temperatures are also near 50, but that rain ends overnight Saturday into Sunday, and we got into a clearing trend, becoming partly sunny, a windy, and cooler day on Sunday, although temperatures may start out close to 50 after midnight. The daylight hour, high temperatures will only be in the 40s. Looks like fair skies in the 40s on Monday before more clouds move in for midweek. Now, if you're traveling by air today, it looks like the eastern seaboard looking okay for the early going. It's later in the day at night that you'll have some rain moving into the New York area. But we do see Boston under generally dry conditions for the daylight, showers at night, and it looks like uh mostly cloudy Lagornia. North and JFK may be an afternoon shower, but nothing much to uh disrupt air travel. Looking at more rainy weather in DC and Baltimore and down in Richmond as well. Charlotte's going to have occasional rain, so some delays there. Some delays also into Atlanta because there may be some severe weather associated with a weather front moving through during the afternoon and evening. So that means they're going to go by the book and everything's going to go a little bit slower into the busiest airport in the world, Atlanta Hortsfield. Jackson. And we're looking at up more rainy weather in Houston and Dallas Fort Worth. Fair conditions, much of the Florida Peninsula. West Coast finally dry. LA, San Francisco, San Diego, northward up to Portland and Seattle. There's a lot of clouds in the Pacific Northwest. Most of the rain is done, and most uh temperatures at seasonable levels. West Coast, no problems flying into those places today. I've been your monster, Steve Pelletier, and I am the weatherman. Hope you have a great day today. And we'll talk to your first thing on Saturday morning. See you then.
