Discussion
High pressure will move offshore later today and this will allow for a mid-week warmup that will bring afternoon highs into the 90’s on both Wednesday and Thursday. A cool front will drift towards the region over the next couple of days raising the chance for showers and thunderstorms; especially, on Thursday afternoon. It’ll turn cooler at the end of the week following the frontal passage and high pressure will build back into the region. On the tropical scene, there are three different waves to monitor as we arrive at the climatological peak in the Atlantic Basin tropical season, but no imminent threat to the Mid-Atlantic.
