Discussion
A strong cold front will slide through the region this morning and then a second one late today/early tonight. As a result, the threat of showers will continue around here right into the evening hours and there can be a thunderstorm or two mixed into the picture...any thunderstorm today can generate some small hail. It’ll turn cooler later tonight following the passage of the second front and the weekend will start off on the windy side as high pressure builds into the Mid-Atlantic region. It turns warmer on Sunday and afternoon temperatures can peak in the upper 70’s, but there will be a chance of late day and evening shower activity.
