Baltimore, MD – The Mid-Atlantic will shiver through the coldest night of November as temperatures plunge into the 20s and 30s across the region. According to the NOAA Weather Prediction Center, clear skies and strong northwest winds will combine to send temperatures well below freezing Monday night, November 10, into Tuesday morning, November 11.
Forecast lows include 26°F in Richmond, 28°F in Washington, D.C., 25°F in Harrisburg, 27°F in Wilmington, 29°F in Philadelphia, and 30°F in Newark, New Jersey. Even coastal areas from Ocean City to Atlantic City will dip into the mid-30s with widespread frost expected.
The National Weather Service offices in Sterling, Mount Holly, and Wakefield have issued frost and freeze alerts covering nearly every Mid-Atlantic county. Forecasters say this will be the coldest and most widespread freeze so far this season, officially ending the growing season across much of Virginia, Maryland, Delaware, and southern Pennsylvania.
Northwest winds of 15–25 mph will continue overnight, creating wind chills in the upper-teens across inland valleys and low-20s closer to the coast.
The Weather Prediction Center’s Hazards Outlook places the Mid-Atlantic in a broad “Frost/Freeze” corridor stretching from the Deep South to New England, marking one of the region’s earliest cold outbreaks in several years.
Tuesday’s highs will struggle to reach the mid-40s inland and near 50°F along the coast — nearly 20 degrees below normal. The chill will linger through Wednesday morning before temperatures moderate late week.
