The cold front that pushed into the Mid-Atlantic region during the overnight hours will hang up for a bit along the eastern seaboard resulting in plenty of clouds this morning and the chance of lingering showers and thunderstorms. High pressure will take control of the weather later today and then a weak cold front will arrive late in the day on Thursday with an isolated shower or two possible. Following the passage of the weak cold front, the Independence Day holiday on Friday should turn out to be very nice in the Mid-Atlantic region with plenty of sunshine, low humidity, and comfortably warm conditions and that nice weather should continue for much of the upcoming weekend as well.

There were strong-to-severe thunderstorms yesterday afternoon and last night across portions of the Mid-Atlantic region and there can be a repeat performance later today and tonight across an even more widespread area. The combination of an incoming surface cold front, strong and intensifying upper-level support, increasing wind shear, and an entrenched warm and very humid air mass will help to destabilize the atmosphere this afternoon. Showers and thunderstorms should increase in coverage and intensity during the mid-day and early afternoon hours across central and western sections of the Mid-Atlantic and then these storms will trek to the east and likely reach the DC-to-Philly-to-NYC corridor during the mid-to-late afternoon/early evening hours (2-9pm timetable). Some of the storms are likely to reach strong-to-severe levels producing torrential rainfall/flash flooding, and potentially damaging wind gusts. The frontal system will hang up for awhile on Wednesday morning near the east coast and there can be lingering showers and thunderstorms along the immediate I-95 corridor and points from there to the coastal sections of New Jersey and the Delmarva Peninsula.

A “conventional” surface cold front will approach the area later today from the northwest (last week’s “back door” cold front moved from northeast-to-southwest). In addition, an upper-level trough will shift eastward into the Mid-Atlantic region, intensify and enhance upward motion all along the I-95 corridor. Given the combination of these systems and the entrenched heat and humidity, showers and thunderstorms will reform later this afternoon and there is the risk that some of the storms will reach strong-to-severe levels containing torrential rainfall/flash-flooding and damaging wind gusts.
High pressure will take control of the weather on Wednesday and then a weak cold front will arrive late in the day on Thursday with an isolated shower or two possible. Following the passage of the weak cold front, the Independence Day holiday on Friday should turn out to be quite nice in the Mid-Atlantic region with plenty of sunshine, lower humidity, and comfortably warm conditions and that nice weather should last into at least the first part of the upcoming weekend.

There was a break in the action on Sunday across the northern Mid-Atlantic region, but strong thunderstorms hit many spots across southern sections to close out the last weekend of June. The threat of showers and thunderstorms will become quite high throughout the entire Mid-Atlantic region from later today into tonight, and this threat will continue Tuesday and Tuesday night...both time periods will come with the risk of strong-to-severe thunderstorms. The combination of a stationary front that turns around later today and pushes northward as a warm front, and the approach of a cold front later tomorrow will keep it unsettled around here, and any thunderstorm on either day can produce torrential rainfall and damaging wind gusts. High pressure pushes in for the mid-week and then a weak cold front comes through late Thursday paving the way for a very nice Independence Day holiday on Friday featuring plenty of sunshine in the Mid-Atlantic region, lower humidity levels, and comfortably warm conditions.
