Discussion
The first half of the week will be quite wet across the Mid-Atlantic region with a nearby frontal system and several waves of low pressure moving along the frontal boundary zone. There will be occasional showers today and the chance for thunderstorms this afternoon and evening. The chance for showers and storms will continue tonight, tomorrow and Wednesday as well. High pressure should follow on Thursday producing sunshine and slightly cooler conditions and then we’ll have to watch a coastal low at the end of the week which could skirt the region and produce additional showers.
