Discussion
Low pressures are riding along a stationary frontal boundary zone and they will spread more significant rainfall into the region from later today into Saturday. As a result, flooding is still a concern due to well-saturated grounds and flash flood watches continue in much of the Mid-Atlantic region. This same frontal system will push north later tomorrow as a warm front and this will lead to warmer weather conditions on Sunday and highs in the 80's. Elsewhere, it looks like the tropics will come to life in about a week or so with a possible system headed towards Florida or the eastern Gulf of Mexico.
