Gray Extending Its Stay
Keep the guest room cleaned as clouds are still visiting, unwelcome as they still may be. Some drizzle is possible overnight with some light snizzle up top. Clouds will remain Wednesday with a few light showers possible (any snow limited to the highest mountaintops). Even Thursday, clouds will be around with daytime drizzle or a light shower possible but some late sky improvement should show by late in the day. Finally... Friday and Saturday will have more sun and pleasant temperatures.

Forecast Discussion
Our upper Low is still drifting off the Mid Atlantic coast but clouds and cool air are locked in as we watch another disturbance approaching from the South.
The next issue in our weather will be a disturbance moving out of Texas and across the Gulf Coast today. This feature will be near the Carolina Coast by late Thursday. It will keep clouds and light rain or drizzle in our forecast Wednesday into Thursday. Any snow with this system will be limited to 5000-foot land.
More pleasant weather is coming Friday and Saturday with gradually warmer temperatures--back to near normal for mid-March.
But there's no easy "March to Spring" this year. The next front will cross the Mississippi River Saturday night and move through here Sunday. Expect rain Sunday followed by sharply colder weather Sunday night. A brief period of snow showers will be possible Sunday night, only nuisance level stuff with accumulations limited to higher elevations and western upslope regions (and light even there). Monday will be unseasonably cold and blustery.
