Discussion
A wave of low pressure will track along a frontal boundary zone today from southwest-to-northeast and produce more rainfall in the Mid-Atlantic region. There will be a brief break in this active and unsettled weather pattern from tonight into late Wednesday as high pressure takes over for a short period of time. Another low pressure system, however, will then impact us with more rainfall from late Wednesday into Thursday. Quite an impressive cold air outbreak will arrive here on Thursday night and temperatures will struggle to reach the middle 30's on Friday and there will be strong winds from the northwest. One final note, the rocket launch scheduled for late Sunday afternoon at Wallops Island, VA was scrubbed due to a faulty sensor. The next attempt will be no earlier than Thursday afternoon.
