Discussion
While the month of July will end up with above-normal temperatures around here, it will close out on a cooler-than-normal note across the Mid-Atlantic region. In fact, the last week has featured cooler-than-normal weather across much of the nation with 1,122 cold temperatures records being set as compared with 173 high temperature records. High pressure will give up control of our weather today as it slides offshore and moisture will increase rapidly from our southwest. Clouds will thicken up this morning and showers are possible during thr afternoon hours. A cool front will approach the region on Thursday and this will enhance our chances for showers and thunderstorms and some of the rain can be heavy. The front should push off the east coast by Friday and this will pave the way for a nice close to the week with sunshine returning on Friday. The weekend should turn out to be mostly dry, but another frontal system will bring the chance for a couple of showers and thunderstorms to the area later Saturday.
