Discussion
The next couple of days will feature some rainfall in the Mid-Atlantic region with showers likely later today/early tonight and then more widespread rain on Saturday. The showers later tonight and early tonight will be associated with a weakening frontal system and then low pressure lifts from the Great Lakes to southeastern Canada on Saturday bringing soaking rain to this area…some of the rain on Saturday can be heavy at times. It’ll be rather mild today with temperatures climbing into the 50’s, but then they’ll likely hold in the 40’s on Saturday, and it turns colder by later Sunday and Monday (and windy as well) after the passage of a cold front.
