Discussion              

The weather looks very nice in the Mid-Atlantic region from today through Friday, but the weekend could feature some rain depending on the movement of a storm that forms off of the Southeast US coastline. High pressure builds into the region today and will be in control through Friday generating plenty of sunshine each day along with fall-like temperatures. A storm is likely to form at week’s end and then move in a general northward direction. Whether there is a direct hit here or a glancing blow is still a bit too early to determine. This system could take on tropical characteristics and will interact act with strong high pressure to the north to generate persistent onshore flow along the coast.
