Temperatures will soar through the 90’s today in the Philly metro region with strong high pressure ridging extending into the area from the Northern Plains...likely the hottest day of the week. A frontal system will pass through the area later in the day and it’ll usher in some wildfire smoke from Canada that can stick around for a couple of days and dim the skies at times. It stays very warm during the next couple of days and then the pattern becomes much more unsettled this weekend with the chance of strong-to-severe thunderstorms and some heavy rainfall on both days.

The overall weather pattern may be setting up for a severe weather and heavy rain threat in the Mid-Atlantic region this weekend. The pattern will feature an intense ridge of high pressure centered over the Rocky Mountain States by the weekend with northwesterly flow over the Great Lakes/Northeast US. Often times, this kind of flow results in lines or complexes of thunderstorms dropping to the south and east from the Great Lakes to the northeastern states and that is on the table for the weekend. The potential exists for heavy rain/flash flooding as well as precipitable water in the atmosphere will climb to high levels. The weekend threat will be preceded by hot weather that can see temperatures surge to the century mark on Wednesday anywhere along the DC-to-Philly-to-NYC corridor.

High pressure in the upper part of the atmosphere will expand to the Mid-Atlantic region today from the Northern Plains leading to hotter weather around here for the next few days. In fact, temperatures are likely to reach the low-to-mid 90’s today, and then soar to near 100 degrees on Wednesday – likely the hottest day of the week. The next few days will generally be relatively quiet in terms of precipitation chances though an isolated thunderstorm or two will be possible. More widespread unsettled weather returns at the end of the week and during the early part of the weekend with the approach of a cold frontal system. This unfolding pattern for the early part of the weekend could result in a heavy rain/flash flooding threat for the Mid-Atlantic region and possible strong-to-severe thunderstorms.

The next several days will continue to feature rather typical summer weather around here with very warm and humid conditions and a daily shot at showers and thunderstorms. Any thunderstorm that does materialize in coming days can produce some heavy rainfall amounts in a short period of time for localized areas. Temperatures will likely peak in the middle 80’s later today and then creep up to the low-to-mid 90’s by the late week and weekend.

High pressure builds into the Mid-Atlantic region today and it should be in control for the next few days. Temperatures will be moderately warm today, rise to above-normal levels on Tuesday, and then soar into the upper 90’s on Wednesday…likely the hottest day of the week. A dry and weak cold front will pass through the region late Wednesday and its passage will have little in the way of relief for the metro region. Unsettled weather makes a return by the end of the week or the early part of the upcoming weekend and strong thunderstorms are likely going to come back to the table.
