Discussion
High pressure builds into the region today providing us with very warm, but rather comfortable humidity levels and plenty of sunshine. A weak cool front will approach the region later tomorrow raising the chances again for a shower or thunderstorm on what will be a rather hot day with highs in the lower 90's and an increase in humidity. Hot weather continues on Friday and a warm frontal system will likely generate a few PM showers and thunderstorms in the Mid-Atlantic region. Yet another frontal system (cool) will approach us late Saturday bringing with it a renewed shot for showers and thunderstorms. Ahead of that next cool front, it'll stay very warm on Saturday with rather uncomfortable humidity levels, but the passage of this front should usher in more comfortable air for Sunday with reduced temperatures and humidity values.
