Discussion
High pressure will continue to produce onshore in the region and this will lead to patchy drizzle at times and relatively mild temperatures. A warm front will arrive on Wednesday increasing the chances for showers in the Mid-Atlantic region. A strong cold front will be situated to our west on Thursday, Halloween Day, and this will result in occasional showers with breezy and mild conditions. Later Thursday night, as the strong cold front arrives, heavy rainfall is likely and there can be strong-to-severe thunderstorms mixed in. It’ll turn cooler on Friday behind the front and then even cooler air arrives this weekend in what looks to be a cooler weather pattern setting up for the first part of November.
