The unsettled weather pattern continues for another couple of days in the Mid-Atlantic region with occasional showers and thunderstorms…any storm can be strong and some of the rain can be heavy. After a break in the heat on Wednesday, southwesterly flow should push much warmer air back into the region later today and temperatures likely will climb to the middle 80’s. A comfortable air mass should drop southward into the region for much of the Labor Day weekend featuring at or slightly below-normal temperatures and lowering humidity values.
One final note…anyone planning to travel to Penn State for their first game on Saturday (@3:30pm) can expect to see mainly sunny skies and high temperatures in the upper 70’s.

After a bit of a break in the high heat on Wednesday, southwesterly flow will push much warmer air back into the region and temperatures should climb to the low-to-mid 90’s. As has been the case in recent days, showers and thunderstorms are forming to our northwest and they’ll drop to the south and east for possible impact during the afternoon and evening hours. Any storm that forms later today can be on the strong-to-severe side with heavy downpours and possible damaging wind gusts. A frontal boundary zone will remain close enough on Friday to keep it unsettled around here with a continuing chance of showers and thunderstorms. A more comfortable air mass should drop southward into the region for part of the Labor Day weekend featuring at or slightly below normal cooler temperatures and lowering humidity values.
