Discussion
A cold front will approach the region late tomorrow and Thursday and it could set off some shower or thunderstorm activity in the Mid-Atlantic region which has been quite dry in recent days. Following the frontal passage, comfortable weather will return for the rest of the work week and the Labor Day weekend looks quite nice as well. Meanwhile, the tropics are alive and well. One tropical system is closing in on the Carolinas and another is working its way into the Gulf of Mexico. The tropical system in the Gulf could intensity over the next few days and head towards the Gulf coast of Florida as a tropical storm or a hurricane by the latter part of the week.
