Discussion              

A frontal system dropped into the region last night from the north and it will stall out today across central Virginia. The day will start off with some patchy fog and an isolated shower, but then it’ll become partly sunny and warm with afternoon highs not far from 80 degrees. Low pressure Low pressure will ride along the frontal boundary zone later tonight and Tuesday bringing us a good chance of showers, maybe a thunderstorm or two and some of the rain can be heavy at times. High pressure takes over at mid-week and the second half of the week is looking dry and warm.
