Discussion
Low pressure that has been hanging around the east coast in recent days will push a bit to the north and west today and the result here will be plenty of clouds, an ocean flow of unseasonably cool air, and occasional showers or drizzle. This system pushes away by later tonight and Thursday will turn out noticeably warmer with plenty of sunshine. High pressure to our north takes control of the weather for the latter part of the week and probably provides protection for us in the Mid-Atlantic region right through the upcoming weekend.
