Discussion
A weak frontal system will be close enough in proximity today to generate scattered showers and thunderstorms in the DC metro region. A more potent system will push across the Great Lakes on Thursday and this one can result in more widespread afternoon and evening showers and thunderstorms. The threat of rain can linger into Friday, but there is a chance for a decent weekend following the passage of this late week frontal system to the western Atlantic.
