Discussion

High pressure dominated our weather pattern for much of last week and a new high pressure system is trying to take control early this week; however, an area of moisture to our south and an ocean flow of air is likely to play a bigger role over the next couple of days. Clouds will be quite abundant through tomorrow and a few showers cannot be ruled out. Temperatures will be quite fall-like into mid-week, but should rise noticeably on Wednesday and Thursday with the return of sunshine. Late this week and into the weekend, a coastal low pressure system will drift back towards the Mid-Atlantic coastline from off-shore and the result could be some rain and wind late in the week and into the weekend in the I-95 corridor region from DC-to-Philly-to-NYC.
