Discussion

A warm front passed through the region late yesterday and it’ll turn much milder today supported by persistent southwesterly winds. An active cold frontal system supported by vigorous upper-level support will likely generate a heavy rain event in the Mid-Atlantic region from late tomorrow into early Thursday. Heavy rain has the potential to create some localized flooding problems tomorrow night into early Thursday and strong thunderstorms are possible during this upcoming heavy rain event. Clearing will be slow to arrive late Thursday, but high pressure is likely to bring improvement at the end of the week.
