Discussion
High pressure over the Northeast US will continue to dominate the weather scene around here as it migrates slowly eastward. A frontal system will approach the region tomorrow night and this is likely to result in a renewed threat of scattered showers and thunderstorms. That same front will tend to stall out in the eastern states at week’s end and the result will be a continuing chance for showers and thunderstorms on Friday and Friday night. "Bermuda-high" type weather will develop around here this weekend and it could get quite hot with highs in the low-to-mid 90's.
