Discussion
After a couple of very comfortable days in the Mid-Atlantic region, changes will take place here at mid-week with warmer and more humid conditions on the way. The atmosphere will also become more unstable later today as an upper-level low expands into the northeastern states bringing us scattered PM showers and thunderstorms. On Thursday, an incoming frontal system will generate more instability in the atmosphere and there can be another round of PM showers and thunderstorms...some of those late day storms on Thursday can be strong-to-severe. From this vantage point, the passage of the late week frontal system looks like it’ll set us up for a pretty decent weekend in the Mid-Atlantic region.
