Discussion
Our dry weather pattern of recent days will come to an end this weekend with two systems bringing us a chance of showers and thunderstorms. On Saturday, moisture associated with a low pressure system that formed yesterday over the northern Gulf of Mexico will push northeastward into the Mid-Atlantic region. While not a total washout, showers can pop up at just about any time on Saturday and there can be a thunderstorm to along with somewhat cooler conditions. The next system of note will be a cold front to our west that will push through the region from late Sunday into Monday and this too can bring us some shower and thunderstorm activity. It turns cooler early next week following the passage of the cold front.
