Discussion
High pressure has shifted off the east coast and this has opened the door for hot and very humid air to flow into the Mid-Atlantic region from the southeastern states. Low-level winds have turned around to primarily a south-to-southwesterly direction and moisture-laden air is now easily riding up along the eastern seaboard. As the humidity levels and temperatures increase, so will our chances for showers and thunderstorms. In fact, this will become a daily threat for the rest of the work week and through the weekend as well and some of the storms can produce heavy rainfall.
