Discussion

High pressure will shift offshore later today and a warm front will cross the region in the overnight hours. This will allow for the return of very mild air back into the Mid-Atlantic region and high temperatures by Thursday afternoon should flirt with the 70 degree mark once again. A strong cold front is coming for the weekend and it will generate showers and a possible thunderstorm on Saturday and then noticeably cooler conditions for Sunday.
