One more day of hot, humid and unsettled weather conditions in the Mid-Atlantic region with another round of PM showers and thunderstorms on the table. Some of the rain that falls later today/early tonight can be heavy at times and some of the storms can reach severe levels. A frontal system will cross the area in the overnight hours and its passage will lead to dry and more comfortable conditions on Saturday with plenty of sunshine. Another frontal system could produce more showers and thunderstorms around here to close out the weekend and the first half of next week should feature a comfortable air mass for mid-June across the Great Lakes and Mid-Atlantic region.

The next couple of days will be quite unsettled in the Mid-Atlantic region as the heat and humidity build to uncomfortable levels. Showers and thunderstorms are possible both today and tomorrow with the best chance during the afternoon and evening hours. Some of the rain that falls through tomorrow evening can be heavy at times and some of the storms can reach severe levels. A frontal system will cross the area on Friday night and its passage will lead to dry and more comfortable conditions on Saturday with noticeably lower humidity levels.

The next few days will be quite unsettled in the Mid-Atlantic region as the heat and humidity build to rather uncomfortable levels. Showers are likely today and there can be a thunderstorm or two mixed in and the threat of showers and thunderstorms will continue on Thursday and Friday as well. Some of the rain that falls through Friday night can be heavy at times and some of the storms can reach strong-to-severe levels. A frontal system should cross the area on Friday night and its passage will lead to more comfortable conditions this weekend (i.e., lower humidity) and generally dry weather for both days.

The second half of the work week will feature very warm and humid conditions and it’ll be quite unsettled as well with multiple chances of showers and thunderstorms. High pressure that pushed into the northeastern states over the weekend will shift to the western Atlantic Ocean at mid-week opening the door for some very warm air to move into the Mid-Atlantic region along with noticeably higher humidity levels. Showers and thunderstorms will be a threat each day from Wednesday through Friday, but a Friday night frontal passage should pave the way for a more comfortable and dry weekend.

Sometimes during the month of June, the jet stream retreats safely to the north into Canada, and the weather settles down across the continental US...that certainly does not appear to the case this year. Upper-level troughs of low pressure and colder-than-normal air masses continue to drop into the US from Canada, and this is resulting in severe weather outbreaks and there will be an enhanced threat during the next few days. Next week promises to feature another impressive upper-level trough by June standards that will no doubt be impactful with more severe weather threats and widespread cooler-than-normal conditions.

Nearby high pressure will dominate the weather scene during the next couple of days and then it’ll shift off the coast at mid-week opening the door for some very warm air to move into the Mid-Atlantic along with noticeably higher humidity levels. It’ll also become unsettled for the second half of the week with the possibility of showers and thunderstorms on Wednesday and Thursday, and Friday could present the chance for severe weather as a strong frontal system arrives. Temperatures will start the new work week at comfortably warm levels, but then rise into the uncomfortable low-to-mid 90’s during the second half of the week.

High pressure off the east coast will control the weather through tomorrow and temperatures will soar to 90+ degrees in many spots along the I-95 corridor. Clouds will tend to increase on Saturday as a frontal system approaches the Mid-Atlantic region and showers and thunderstorms are possible at night. While there can be some lingering shower on Sunday, much - if not all - of the day should be rain-free to close out the weekend. Quite warm and dry weather should dominate the scene early next week as a new high pressure system takes control in the Mid-Atlantic region.

Warmer air has pushed into the Mid-Atlantic region on the backside of high pressure that is headed to the western Atlantic Ocean. Temperatures today should reach the upper 80s around here, the lower 90’s on Friday and the low-to-mid 90’s on Saturday. An upper-level trough of low pressure will approach the area later this weekend and bring us the chance of showers and thunderstorms on Saturday night. The threat of showers will continue on Sunday…maybe a PM thunderstorm…but much of the day should be rain-free.

High pressure has settled over the Tennessee Valley and it’ll shift to the western Atlantic Ocean over the next few days. This re-positioning of the high pressure will open up the door for much warmer air to push into the Mid-Atlantic region as low-level southwesterly flow develops on the back side of the high pressure system. Temperatures today should approach the 80 degree mark for afternoon highs and then likely reach the mid-to-upper 80’s tomorrow, 90 degrees on Friday and the lower 90’s on Saturday. By later Sunday, the chance for showers and thunderstorms will increase in the Mid-Atlantic region as low pressure heads in this direction from the Great Lakes. It’ll likely stay unsettled and turn cooler on Monday and Tuesday of next week with a continuing chance of showers.

High pressure will settle over the Tennessee Valley over the next couple of days and then slide to coastal areas by later in the week. This pattern will open up the door for much warmer weather to push into the Mid-Atlantic region as southwesterly flow develops on the back side of the high pressure system. Temperatures today should hold in the comfortable middle 70’s for afternoon highs and then approach the 80 degree mark on Wednesday. By the end of the work week and first part of the weekend, high temperatures in the lower 90’s will be likely and then the warmth will slacken off a bit on Sunday as clouds and rain chances increase by later in the day. Low pressure will move in this direction from the Great Lakes late in the weekend and it’ll likely stay unsettled on Monday and Tuesday as well with a continuing chance of showers.
