Discussion
Today will be another hot one in the Mid-Atlantic region with high temperatures this afternoon well up in the 90's in most locations along the I-95 corridor. A weak frontal system will slide through later today and most likely cross the area rain-free, but an isolated shower or thunderstorm cannot be ruled out this afternoon. Following the frontal passage, overall humidity levels may actually drop some later today making the heat a little easier to take and then high temperatures will be slightly reduced this weekend compared to today along with scattered showers and thunderstorms. A stronger front arrives early next week and this should continue the chances for showers and thunderstorms by late Monday and Tuesday.
