A cold front passed through the region and cooler, drier air will pour into the region today in stiff NW winds. This change in air mass will result in more comfortable temperatures and humidity levels not only for today, but also for much of the weekend. By early next week, more humid air will return on the backside of high pressure which will shift to our east this weekend and the chance of showers and storms will be on the increase during the first half of next week.

A frontal system will bring us the chance of showers and thunderstorms today and some of the storms can be on the strong side. The front should clear the region late today from northwest-to-southeast paving the way for cooler, drier conditions in the overnight hours and on Friday. In fact, it looks like Friday and Saturday will be quite comfortable around here for the early part of June. Warmer and more humid air returns for Sunday and Monday and with it will come a renewed chance of showers and thunderstorms.

The passage of a back door cool front has brought relief today to the New York City metro region, New Jersey and it’ll turn out to be a bit better in the Philly area as well as easterly low-level winds have developed during the past few hours. Unfortunately, there will be no relief today in the DC metro region with highs likely to again be in the 90’s. This weak frontal boundary zone and another front will cause unsettled weather in the Mid-Atlantic from later today through tomorrow night that will include the chance for heavy rain and strong thunderstorms. High pressure will take back control at the end of the week and the weekend is shaping up to be quite nice across the region.

The combination of an increasingly humid air mass, strong surface frontal system and a vigorous mid-level low will help generate numerous showers on Friday and Friday night in the Mid-Atlantic region and possible severe thunderstorms. In fact, there may be two bands of thunderstorms to closely monitor during this event- one during the mid-day/early afternoon hours and a second during the late evening associated with the frontal passage. The main severe weather parameter threats will be damaging wind gusts, “flash-flooding” downpours, and isolated tornadoes are even possible. The upper-level low will be rather slow-moving from west-to-east and this is likely to result in an unsettled weather day on Saturday in the Mid-Atlantic region with scattered showers and strong thunderstorms. The upper-level will exit off the coast on Sunday resulting in improvement to end the weekend and the weather on Monday, Memorial Day, should feature plenty of sunshine, very warm conditions and highs well up in the 80’s.
