Discussion
Coastal low pressure will pull away from the Mid-Atlantic coastline today and our weather will improve quite noticeably compared to our cool, wet day on Tuesday. It’ll become warmer tomorrow and actually back to seasonable conditions for a change as a cold front approaches the region. There can be some shower and thunderstorm activity later tomorrow, but it won't be a total washout. The weekend may feature a wet spell on Saturday courtesy of the remains of Hurricane Harvey as it finally pushes to the northeast after spending many days in the Deep South.
