Discussion    

A weak frontal system and a very humid air mass will keep us unsettled today in the Mid-Atlantic region with the chance of afternoon and evening showers and thunderstorms. Any shower or thunderstorm later today/early tonight can produce heavy rainfall with localized flooding a possibility.  The front will dissipate during the next couple of days and an increase in sunshine will boost temperatures to the low-to-mid 90’s by mid-week and it’ll be humid as well. Another frontal system will bring us a return of a shower and thunderstorm threat later in the week.
