High pressure centered over the western Atlantic Ocean continues to pump in warm, moist air to the Mid-Atlantic region and a series of weak fronts will keep it unsettled around here for the next couple of days. The combination of the high humidity and the weak disturbances will result in a chance of showers and thunderstorms right through tomorrow night and some of the rain can be heavy at times. High pressure building over the Great Lakes by week’s end should be strong enough to eliminate the chance of rain around here on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday and temperatures should be pretty close to seasonal norms.

What a difference a week makes...a week ago the Mid-Atlantic region was experiencing high heat with triple digit highs in some spots and significant rainfall was hard to come by. Severe thunderstorms then took place last Tuesday and Wednesday causing numerous power outages in the Mid-Atlantic region...all part of a transition in the overall pattern that resulted in an influx of cooler air on Thursday. Since then, and for the rest of this week, temperatures will be much closer to seasonal norms with afternoon highs generally in the 80’s and no triple digit heat is in sight for the I-95 corridor. In terms of rainfall, weak winds in the lower and middle atmosphere are contributing to slow movement of showers and thunderstorm cells and - given the high amounts of available moisture - this has increased the chance for some heavy rainfall amounts in a given location and this threat will remain with us through Thursday. Beyond that, high pressure over the Great Lakes is likely to bring about a warm and dry period from Friday through Sunday.

High pressure centered over the western Atlantic Ocean continues to pump in warm, moist air to the Mid-Atlantic region and a series of weak fronts will keep it unsettled around here for the next few days. The combination of the high humidity and the multiple disturbances will result in a chance of showers and thunderstorms right through Thursday and some of the rain can be heavy at times. High pressure over the Great Lakes by week’s end should be strong enough to eliminate the chance of rain around here on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday and temperatures should be pretty close to seasonal norms.

Temperatures will climb over the next couple of days with today’s highs near 90 degrees and then highs well up in the 90’s for much of the 2nd half of the week. The chance of rain will be small for the next couple of days and then it’ll increase some by the end of the week. One other note, there can be some wildfire smoke in the region during the next 48 hours or so which can result in hazy skies across the region.

Much of the week ahead will feature high pressure centered over the western Atlantic Ocean and from this location a low-level flow of air from the Gulf of Mexico will pump in warm and humid air to the Mid-Atlantic region. The combination of the high humidity and a series of weak disturbances and frontal systems will generate a daily threat of showers and thunderstorms right through the day on Thursday. Many of the showers and thunderstorms that form during the next few days will be slow-movers raising the chance of heavy rainfall over a given location…perhaps resulting in some localized flash flooding conditions.
