Discussion
An upper-level low will swing across the northern Mid-Atlantic region today and it will produce some instability in the atmosphere and perhaps even an isolated shower or thunderstorm. Later in the week, an upper-level ridge will edge eastward and temperatures should climb to 90 degrees or so by Thursday afternoon and then the low-to-mid 90’s on Friday. A cold front will slide through the region on Friday night – perhaps sparking a few PM showers and thunderstorms – and temperatures will drop a bit this weekend with highs likely in the mid-to-upper 80’s on both days.
