Discussion
The summer-like weather pattern will continue into the Memorial Day holiday weekend as high pressure dominates in this part of the country. There can be scattered showers and thunderstorms this afternoon as we close out the work week along with high temperatures well up in the 80’s all along the I-95 corridor. The weekend will feature partly-to-mostly sunny, skies, high temperatures in the 80’s, and primarily rain-free conditions. A back door cold front will make an attempt to approach the area from the north late in the weekend and it should turn somewhat cooler on Monday with the chance for showers and thunderstorms on the holiday.
