Discussion              

Another period of unsettled weather is coming to the Mid-Atlantic region from later today through tomorrow night and it can include some heavy rainfall and strong thunderstorm activity. A weak frontal boundary zone will stall out in the Mid-Atlantic region today and a strong cold front approaches later Thursday. The stalled-out boundary zone will be the focus of any shower or thunderstorm activity that forms later today and tonight and then low pressure will develop nearby on Thursday enhancing the chance of showers and potentially strong-to-severe thunderstorms. High pressure will take back control by the time we get to the weekend which is shaping up to be quite nice in the Mid-Atlantic region.
