Discussion              

The upper-level low drifting around the southern Hudson Bay region of Canada in recent days will weaken and slide to the east at mid-week. Meanwhile, high pressure over the southeastern states will take control of our weather in the short-term as its axis will move overhead by later tomorrow. Later in the week, a cold front will begin to push from west-to-east across the central states along with an intensifying upper-level trough of low pressure. This combination may help to spawn the formation of strong low pressure near the Mid-Atlantic coastline by the early part of the upcoming weekend likely resulting in another weekend rain event for the DC-to-Philly-to-NYC corridor.
