Discussion

A cool front passed through the Mid-Atlantic region early Monday and ushered in a comfortable air mass featuring noticeably lower humidity levels than recent days and they’ll stay in the moderate zone today. It’ll turn hotter and more humid on Wednesday ahead of the next cool frontal system and that front is likely to produce afternoon and evening showers and thunderstorms in the Mid-Atlantic region. Some of the PM thunderstorms on Wednesday can reach strong-to-severe levels. More comfortable air returns to the region on Thursday following the passage of the mid-week front and it stays comfortable into the weekend. Another front is likely to bring another round of showers and thunderstorms to the Mid-Atlantic region on Saturday night and Sunday.
