Discussion
A cool front will approach the region tonight and it’ll have trouble pushing through as it’ll align with upper-level winds. This front will meander in the Mid-Atlantic region on Wednesday and Thursday keeping it somewhat unsettled and then another cold front will arrive on Friday. The late week frontal system is liable to cause showers and thunderstorms as we close out the work week and while the weekend may start off on a decent note, more rain is possible as we close out the upcoming Mother's Day weekend.
