WASHINGTON — After a strong cold front passes through the region on Saturday morning along the east coast, it is going to definitely feel more like football weather as high pressure builds in across the eastern part of the United States. It will be quite the opposite along the west coast as very warm conditions settle in. Either way, we are still looking at dry and quiet conditions for your NFL Sunday.
