The weather pattern continues to be active today as a strong cold front slides eastward into the Mid-Atlantic region and low pressure will form near the east coast along the frontal boundary zone. As a result, more rain will fall today in the region and there can be a thunderstorm or two mixed into the picture. After the surface low pressure system pushes away, a large scale upper-level trough will edge overhead on Friday and this system will produce cool and unsettled conditions on Friday afternoon and evening with the likelihood of more shower activity. It stays cool on Saturday as well and there can be an additional shower or two as it’ll remain somewhat unstable with chilly air in the upper part of the atmosphere. Looking ahead, a much warmer pattern will evolve next week in the eastern states and we’ll likely return to the 70 degree mark by next Tuesday afternoon.

It’s time once again to “Play Ball”…at least the openers are on the schedule for many cities on Thursday and an additional bunch of locations on Friday. The weather is not being very cooperative, however, and there have actually already been a couple of postponements for games originally scheduled for Thursday afternoon. An active weather pattern across the nation will bring about numerous showers and cool conditions on Thursday, Thursday night and Friday in the northeastern quadrant of the nation, winds will remain quite strong in much of the nation’s mid-section, and excessive heat will be a factor for baseball being played in southern California. Looking ahead, there appears to be a flip in the temperature pattern coming to the nation next week with warmer weather on the way for the eastern states and colder conditions in the western US.

High pressure will be in control today, but this will no doubt turn out to be quite an active week of weather. It looks like a soaking rain event is on the way for Tuesday night and Wednesday and then more rain is likely during the second half of the week. Low pressure will approach the area later tomorrow and a second one arrives on Thursday along a strong cold frontal system. Following the passage of the cold front, a colder-than-normal air mass will arrive for the end of the week and stick around into the weekend.

Following the passage of a strong cold front, it’ll turn cooler today, but it remains windy and quite unsettled as a large upper-level trough of low pressure swings through the northeastern part of the nation. Clouds will dominate the skies with a chance of showers today and perhaps even a thunderstorm. The weather calms down tonight and temperatures will drop down into the middle 30’s in many suburban locations. Another upper-level trough will move over the Mid-Atlantic region during the second half of the weekend which will bring us a chance of showers on Saturday night and Sunday. And yet another system threatens to pull out of the southern US next week and bring us a soaking rain event on Tuesday night and Wednesday.

There was a severe weather outbreak yesterday across the Deep South and Tennessee Valley and many of the same catalysts will move in the eastern states by later today. At the surface, strong low pressure will move from the Great Lakes into western Quebec and it’ll help to lift a warm front across our area paving the way for a surge in temperatures into the 70’s in many spots. This surge in temperatures will be aided by intervals of sunshine that should develop later today just ahead of a strong cold frontal system. This front will move from west-to-east and it’ll approach the I-95 corridor region by the end of the day.
In the upper atmosphere, a complex weather pattern will feature multiple jet streaks and numerous shortwaves - all leading to increasing upward motion later today/tonight centered right over the Mid-Atlantic region. Showers will be of the isolated-to-scattered variety for the bulk of the day; however, more numerous showers will overspread the region by the early evening hours. In addition, the threat for severe thunderstorm activity will increase as we go through the evening hours with damaging wind gusts and isolated tornadoes on the table.

Rain from later today into tonight can be heavy at times and there can be a strong-to-severe thunderstorm or two mixed into the picture along with a continuation of the strong winds. It turns cooler on Friday following the passage of the cold front, but still somewhat unsettled, and more showers are possible by the second half of the weekend.
