It looks like quite an unsettled weather pattern around here for the next 7 days or so with multiple rounds of showers and thunderstorms. The cool frontal system that passed through the region on Thursday will stall out just to our south later today and return north as a warm front by early tomorrow. As a result, clouds will thicken up tonight and showers are possible after midnight along with the threat of a thunderstorm as the warm front approaches. On Saturday, showers can fall at just about any time as the warm front tries to push through the region and there can be a late day thunderstorm. This same front will then turn around tomorrow night and drop southward as a cool front bringing much cooler air back into the region for Sunday and the threat for showers will continue. In fact, there will be chances for showers and thunderstorms for much of next week as the unsettled pattern takes hold.

A cool front will close in on the area today and it will be preceded by showers and maybe a thunderstorm or two – some of which can be on the strong-to-severe side in the Mid-Atlantic region. This same front will then stall to our south late tomorrow and likely generate unsettled conditions around here this weekend as it meanders back-and-forth. First, the front will return as a warm front on Saturday pushing from south-to-north and then it will turn around again and try to drop southward a second time as a cool front later Sunday. The proximity of this meandering frontal boundary zone this weekend will raise chances here for showers and thunderstorms on both Saturday and Sunday and there can be some heavy rain at times in this type of pattern.

Another cool front will push to the east coast on Sunday night and it’ll turn even cooler as we begin the new work week. Low pressure could ride up the coast at mid-week with some impact on the area.
