An arctic front will cross the region today, ushering in a much colder and more arctic air mass as temperatures quickly drop behind the boundary this afternoon with a very cold night expected. After a chilly Friday, temperatures will begin to moderate into the weekend as a warm front approaches, but another strong cold front will approach on Sunday with a very chilly air mass expected to remain in place for much of next week.
