Discussion
The unsettled weather pattern continues today, tonight and tomorrow as a stalled out frontal system remains the focus area for showers and thunderstorms in the Mid-Atlantic region. A strong cold front will finally push completely through the area on Saturday night and this will set the stage for much nicer weather on Sunday and Monday. Elsewhere, tropical depression Cristobal remains parked just inland over Mexico this morning, but it should head out over the open warm waters of the Gulf of Mexico by tonight and then move generally in a northward direction over the next couple of days. This kind of a track would bring Cristobal in the vicinity of southern Louisiana by late in the weekend likely as a strong tropical storm, but there is the chance that it reaches minimal hurricane status - all should closely monitor the situation from the Panhandle of Florida-to-Texas.
