Discussion
After a couple of dry, mild and quiet days in the Mid-Atlantic region, it’ll turn wet around here today with occasional rain likely as low pressure pushes to our west. After a partly sunny and very warm day on Thursday, a cold front will approach the region on Friday bringing with it another chance of showers as we close out the work week and maybe even a thunderstorm. Temperatures ahead of the cold front will surge well up into the 70's on both Thursday afternoon and on Friday, and then they’ll drop by about ten degrees or so for the upcoming weekend following the passage of the front. More rain is looking likely on Sunday in the Mid-Atlantic region.
