Discussion

High pressure will edge into the region today resulting in dry and warmer conditions to go along with copious amounts of sunshine after early morning patchy fog dissipates. A backdoor cool front will slide through the area late Friday – perhaps with a shower or thunderstorm - and the weekend will turn out to be quite cool as a result. In addition, showers are likely on Saturday as low pressure pushes into the northeastern part of the country and a shower or two can linger into the early hours on Sunday. The weather turns drier and warmer on Monday following what will be a cool and unsettled weekend in the Mid-Atlantic region, but another system can bring us another round of showers by Tuesday.
