Discussion

Unsettled weather has returned to the Mid-Atlantic region and it will stick around right into the upcoming weekend. Showers and thunderstorms will threaten today, tomorrow, Friday, and perhaps even right through the weekend. While much of the time will be rain-free over the next few days, there will likely be some heavy rain during this extended stretch of unsettled weather. Temperatures will remain below normal today holding to near 80 degrees for afternoon highs and this will continue our cooler-than-normal beginning to the month of August. We'll warm up some on Thursday and Friday as we should get into the warm sector behind the passage of a warm frontal system.
