Discussion
High pressure will shift offshore today and the clockwise flow around it will promote low-level southwesterly winds. This wind shift will act to push warmer and more humid air into the Mid-Atlantic region from the Deep South over the next couple of days. In fact, much of the second half of the week will feature high temperatures flirting with the 90 degree mark much of the time. At the same time this high pressure system shifts off the east coast, a weak cold front will slide slowly eastward across the Upper Midwest and this combination will increase our chances for showers and thunderstorms as the week progresses.
