A cold front will move through the region today and it will result in some shower or thunderstorm activity and some of the storms can be on the strong-to-severe side with small hail as a possibility. The rain will be possible around here any time from late morning on through the early evening hours. After an evening shower or thunderstorm, skies will clear in the overnight hours and it’ll turn quite cool with early morning lows not far from the 50 degree mark. High pressure will dominate the scene for the second half of the week in the Mid-Atlantic region providing plenty of sunshine and it’ll remain somewhat cooler-than-normal for the latter stages of September and the beginning of October.

High pressure is in control as we begin the new work week, but the arrival of a weak frontal system will bring some clouds to the area tonight and Tuesday and perhaps a shower or two. Following the front, more high pressure will push into the Mid-Atlantic region and result in generally cool and dry weather for the mid and late week time periods. Meanwhile, Hurricane Sam is churning over the Atlantic and needs to be closely monitored. As high pressure builds into the southeastern part of Canada in coming days, Hurricane Sam could take a turn towards the Northeast US/New England during the upcoming weekend.

A significant rain event is now getting underway in the Mid-Atlantic region and it will continue into early Friday as a cold front inches its way across the area. This cold front has support aloft from a strong disturbance that will center itself over the Great Lakes/Ohio Valley and there will be plenty of low-level moisture within a persistent and broad south-to-southeast flow of air that is forming on its front side. Showers have already pushed into interior sections of the Mid-Atlantic region and there can be an afternoon thunderstorm or two. The showers and thunderstorms will become more numerous on Thursday and Thursday night and some of the storms can reach severe levels with damaging wind gusts and even isolated tornadoes on the table. Flash flooding is an increasing concern in the Mid-Atlantic region given the already well-saturated grounds from recent significant rain events.
