This was in this mornings AFD from LWX

High pressure will build to our north over the Great Lakes
Tuesday, leading to mostly sunny skies. Temperatures will run
about 10 degrees below normal, with highs for most in the upper
40s and 50s (upper 30s to low 40s mountains). A northwesterly
breeze of around 20 mph will make it feel even cooler. High
pressure will become centered to our north over the Southern
Tier of NY Tuesday night, with a surface ridge extending
southward into our area. Skies will be clear, and winds should
go light or calm, setting the stage for an ideal radiational
cooling night. Temperatures are forecast to drop below freezing
to the northwest of I-95, with lows in the 20s for many. We may
be issuing Frost Advisories and Freeze Warnings for Tuesday
night into early Wednesday in some parts of our region.

 

But this is what they said Sunday morning in the AFD

Upper trough will swing across the northern Mid-Atlantic states
Sunday night through Tuesday bringing chilly air for early Apr with
highs 5 to 15 degrees cooler than normal. As strong Canadian
high pressure settles in by Wednesday morning, expect cold
temperatures with likelihood of frost and hard freeze. Since
this is earlier than the median date of April 11 of the last
Spring Freeze based on the latest 1991-2000 Climatology, no
Frost and/or Freeze headlines are anticipated at this time

Was actually able to get a mostly sunny bike ride break in just now. Clouds are becoming more aggressive, though. Absolutely loving the current theme of the 10 day forecast.
