After a couple of very comfortable days in the Mid-Atlantic region, changes will take place here at mid-week with warmer and more humid conditions on the way. The atmosphere will also become more unstable later today as an upper-level low expands into the northeastern states bringing us scattered PM showers and thunderstorms. On Thursday, an incoming frontal system will generate more instability in the atmosphere and there can be another round of PM showers and thunderstorms...some of those late day storms on Thursday can be strong-to-severe. From this vantage point, the passage of the late week frontal system looks like it’ll set us up for a pretty decent weekend in the Mid-Atlantic region.

The weather will remain quite comfortable for another day in the Mid-Atlantic region with high pressure still in control, but changes take place at mid-week. On Wednesday, an upper-level trough of low pressure over the center of the country will expand into the northeastern states and the weather will become warmer, more humid, and more unsettled with the chance of PM showers and thunderstorms. On Thursday, an incoming frontal system will add fuel to the fire and there can be another round of PM showers and thunderstorms in the Mid-Atlantic region...some of those late day storms on Thursday can be strong-to-severe. From this vantage point, the passage of the late week frontal system looks like it’ll set us up for a nice Friday, Saturday and Sunday in the Mid-Atlantic region.

A strong cold frontal system passed through the region in the overnight hours paving the way for a refreshing air mass to make its way into the Mid-Atlantic region. Humidity will be noticeably lower during the next couple of days and the nights will be on the cool side for the middle of June. An upper-level trough will extend into this part of the nation at mid-week and the weather will become more unsettled with the chance of PM showers and thunderstorms on both Wednesday and Thursday, and severe weather may be on the table for late Thursday.

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 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 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.
