Discussion
High pressure east of Hudson Bay in Canada remains a key player for the weather in the Mid-Atlantic region over the next few days as it will help to produce an east-to-northeast flow of air, cool conditions, and plenty of clouds with occasional drizzle or light rain. Meanwhile, an upper-low over the Midwest will meander over the Tennessee Valley over the next few days and it could finally kick to the east late in the week bringing the threat of showers to the region. Tropical Storm Arthur – the first tropical system of the 2020 Atlantic Basin season – will impact the Outer Banks of North Carolina today and then curve to the east and out-to-sea on Tuesday.
