Discussion

High pressure to our north will be in control of the weather to start the work week providing us with warm conditions and some sunshine. Low pressure is strengthening just off the Carolina coast and it has a good chance of pushing to the north and west over the next 48 hours resulting in shower activity around here from later tomorrow into Wednesday. It will also become quite breezy and an onshore flow of air will keep it unusually cool for the mid-week. The heaviest rainfall and strongest winds associated with this coastal low pressure system will likely extend from southeastern Virginia to the southern half of the Delmarva Peninsula to southern New Jersey. High pressure will follow on its heels for the latter part of the week bringing us more in the way of warm and dry weather conditions.
