Memorial Day
and quick post on the week ahead!
Surface
Chart and Radar
Saturday and
Sunday we’re cool and wet. Over
the holiday weekend 1-4 inches
of rain fell across the region.
Today, we
had a coolish start with lingering rain. But then drier air worked in, and we
saw some afternoon
clearing, allowing the day became nicer for most of us. But rain is lingering south of the Mason Dixon Line. Our temperatures during the day were still on the
cool side of average.
Tuesday will
be the nicest day of the week, sunny, very warm but breezy. The day starts out a bit cool but looks dry for most of us with temperatures becoming above average. There is a chance for a few scattered showers in the Middle Atlantic closer to the frontal boundary. The warm and dry conditions will
continue into Wednesday. But after Tuesday
we will be dealing with series of disturbances moving through. The first will
be on Wednesday will see a cold front approach and will drop into the region
out of Canada. With the frontal passage we will see variable clouds with
isolated to scattered showers. The front will be moisture starved any showers
should be quick and light. We’re going to see a regional cooldown with the
frontal passage, with temperatures returning to seasonal along with lower
humidity levels as well,
For Thursday
and Friday, we will be dealing with a trough hanging around the region, keeping
things seasonally cool and unsettled. Later Friday into Saturday a more organized
system will move into the region, with rain developing Friday night into
Saturday.
This weekend
will see the chance for a few showers, but Sunday will be the better of the two
days. Then a better chance for rain moves in for Monday.
