Discussion

More beneficial rainfall is headed to the Mid-Atlantic region…high pressure shifts to our east today and low pressure will make a move up the Ohio River Valley and then a new low pressure system will form near the Mid-Atlantic coastline. As a result, rain can push into the area by early tomorrow and the mid-week will feature periods of rain and quite cool conditions as the result of an ocean flow of air. A cold front can produce more shower activity in the region later in the week and even a period of steadier rain is possible from later Friday into Saturday. Temperatures will be well below-normal for the next couple of days for the latter part of May and remain a bit below-normal as we head into the weekend.
