Discussion
Strong high pressure centered to our west will continue to dominate the weather around here right into the end of the work week. At that time, attention will turn to a strong wave of energy in the upper part of the atmosphere which will drop into the Ohio Valley by the early part of the weekend and it’ll play an important role in the likelihood of rain in the DC metro region and some of it may become heavy at times. Initially, a wave of low pressure at the surface will push into the Ohio Valley, but ultimately, a secondary system should form and become the main system.
