Discussion
It stays quite warm and humid today in the Mid-Atlantic region and there will be plenty of sunshine. A cold front will arrive tonight and this system will enhance the chances of showers and thunderstorms; especially, during the late afternoon and evening hours. Any storm that forms late in today or early tonight can be strong-to-severe and produce heavy rainfall. High pressure will reduce the threat of showers and thunderstorms on Wednesday and Thursday and then another high pressure system will build into the region this weekend resulting in very warm conditions and an increasing shot at showers and thunderstorms by later Sunday.
