Discussion

A cold front passed through the region last night, but will linger off the coast for awhile and create some unsettled conditions across the Mid-Atlantic for the next few days. As a result, clouds will be rather plentiful on Friday, Saturday and Sunday and a few showers cannot be ruled out on each day. Strong high pressure will build into southeastern Canada early next week and we’ll have to monitor the movement of tropical systems over the western Atlantic for potential impact along the east coast.
