Tracking storms… We are tracking a cold front that will push through the Mid-Atlantic today. The front will trigger scattered showers and thunderstorms. Some storms could be strong to severe with heavy rain and gusty winds. Highs today will return to the mid and upper 80s.

Temperatures and humidity will drop slightly on Wednesday. Expect partly cloudy skies with just a slim chance for a shower. Sunshine will return for the end of the week but with more heat and humidity. Expect highs in the low 90s but it will feel more like the mid and upper 90s with the higher humidity.
