The wider storm

Areas of freezing rain, resulting in hazardous road conditions, occurred the morning of the 18th. High pressure over the northeast slowly retreated ahead of an approaching low pressure system, keeping northeast flow over the Mid-Atlantic for a good portion of the night on the 17th and allowing for surface temperatures to drop into the 20s. As the high moved offshore, warm air advection with an increasing low level jet overrode the colder air at the surface, producing light rain along the I-95 corridor, with pockets of freezing rain especially along bridges and overpasses.
