Discussion
High pressure will shift offshore today, but it’ll remain close enough for another pleasant mid-June day in the Mid-Atlantic region. The weather will go downhill tonight as a warm front and associated low pressure system lift northward along the east coast leading to an increase in clouds and the threat for late night rain and thunderstorms and some of the rain can be heavy at times. The rain will continue into the morning hours on Thursday and then we'll experience scattered PM showers and thunderstorms as the surface low pressure pushes to the north of here and a cold front arrives. High pressure will build into the region for the last day of the work week and comfortable, but windy weather will prevail on Friday. It'll turn warmer on Saturday and stay rain-free, but clouds return on Sunday as will the chance for showers and thunderstorms and that threat for rain continues early next week.
