Discussion
Perseid meteor shower tonight…
Somewhat unsettled conditions here at mid-week with a frontal system hanging around the Mid-Atlantic region. This cold front will attract a couple of waves of energy during the next couple of days raising the possibility of scattered showers and thunderstorms. The front should clear the region by Friday leading to the push of drier and cooler air mass into the Mid-Atlantic for the upcoming weekend.
