Discussion

The work week will end with plenty of clouds and comfortable temperatures that should peak this afternoon in the mid-to-upper 70’s...there can be a shower or thunderstorm along the way, but lots of rain-free time. A cold front will bear down on the Mid-Atlantic from the northwest later tomorrow and this “primary” frontal system will likely bring more showers and thunderstorms to the area from late tomorrow into tomorrow night. A “secondary” cold front will then drop south and east into the Mid-Atlantic from later Sunday into Monday and it can result in an additional shower or thunderstorm, but nothing too organized and mainly a rain-free finish to the weekend. A cool, dry and fall-like blast of air arrives on Monday, Labor Day, and it’ll feature below-normal temperatures and very comfortable humidity levels right into at least the middle of next week.
