Discussion
An area of showers and embedded thunderstorms is pushing northeast early today across northeastern Maryland and it can impact the Philly metro region by the middle of the morning. There can be another shower or thunderstorm later today and any one of these can produce heavy rainfall. After a comfortable weekend in the Mid-Atlantic region, temperatures will remain at moderately warm levels today and Tuesday, but then likely soar into the 90’s during the second half of the week…indeed, the hottest weather so far this summer in the Wednesday through Friday time period. High pressure will shift off the coast by mid-week opening the door for hotter air to push east from the center of the nation.
