Discussion

High pressure will build back into the region for today and Thursday and the resultant increase in sunshine will boost afternoon temperatures each day to noticeably warmer levels compared to the past couple of days. Low pressure off the Carolina coastline will push northward at a snail's pace at the end of this week and weekend and it will combine with strong high pressure to the north to generate a persistent onshore flow of air. Showers are possible during the weekend in the Mid-Atlantic region; especially, in areas south and east of Route I-95. Coastal sections could see some above-normal high tides, rip currents and even beach erosion over the weekend given the expected persistent onshore flow of air and all of these conditions will be exacerbated by the full "supermoon" on Sunday.
