Discussion
Drought does not look like it will a concern anytime soon here in the Mid-Atlantic region. In fact, there very well may be serious concerns around here for flash flooding during the next several days as multiple rounds of showers and thunderstorms are coming our way. One northward-moving frontal system will pass through our area by tomorrow as a warm front and then a southward-moving cold front will slide through tomorrow night. As a result, Tuesday will likely become summer-like with very humid conditions and temperatures in the 80’s and then a round of strong-to-severe thunderstorms may affect us late tomorrow/tomorrow night as the cold front arrives. That cold front will remain in close proximity for the rest of the week and upcoming weekend leading to additional rounds of showers and thunderstorms. To add to the threat of excessive rainfall around here, tropical moisture from the Southeast US will push northward over the next few days and get intertwined with the overall weather pattern.
