Discussion              

High pressure over the Mid-Atlantic region will push offshore later today and this will open the door for much milder air to push into the area from the southern states.  As with most recent warm-ups, the milder weather will be accompanied by an increasing chance of showers during the second half of the week.  A warm front will lift north of the area on Wednesday and a residual frontal boundary zone will act as a conduit for additional waves of low pressure later in the week. As a result, it’ll stay unsettled around here with occasional showers from later tomorrow through the day on Saturday at which time a cold front should pass through the area.
