Discussion
The rest of the week looks very warm, humid and quite unsettled in the eastern half of the nation which will contain additional chances of showers and storms for the Mid-Atlantic region. There will be a couple of frontal systems to deal with over the next few days, but the main player will be strong high pressure over the western Atlantic which will pump in very warm and humid air to the region on a continuous basis. Temperatures will climb into the 90’s each day this week and high dew points will continue to make for quite uncomfortable conditions.
