Discussion
A warm frontal system generated rain in our area during the overnight hours and today there can be occasional showers and perhaps a strong thunderstorm or two today as a cold front approaches and some of the rain can down hard at times. Following the frontal passage, high pressure will build into the region for the mid-week, but then an intense low pressure system will produce significant rain here from late Wednesday night into Thursday night - and perhaps even some strong-to-severe thunderstorms for the Mid-Atlantic region. The steadiest, heaviest rain from this next system is likely to be off to our northeast come early Friday, but it’ll turn quite windy and cool here with additional rain showers possible as deep upper-level low spins over the Northeast US. Accumulating snow is likely to occur on the backside of this late week event in the Ohio Valley and Appalachian Mountains from NY to Tennessee.
