Discussion
An unsettled weather pattern is setting up for the next five days in the I-95 corridor region from DC-to-Philly-to-NYC. Steady rain this morning will give way to mainly cloudy skies as a cold front approaches from our west. This front is likely to generate scattered showers and thunderstorms later today in the Mid-Atlantic region and some of the storms can be on the strong side. The front stalls out to our south this weekend and low pressure will track along it towards the Mid-Atlantic coastline. While the weekend rain associated with this low pressure system will stay primarily to the south of the PA/MD border, there can be some shower activity around here; especially, on Saturday and Saturday night. This same low pressure is then likely to ride farther to the north early next week and threaten us with rain on Monday and Tuesday before it finally pulls away at mid-week.
