.DISCUSSION... 


High pressure will quickly move across Pennsylvania and New 
York today leading to warm and mostly clear skies today. An 
upper level low pressure system moves across the area on 
Thursday bringing rain chances to most areas north of the North
Carolina and Virginia border. High pressure once again settles
north of the area on Friday leading to calm weather before 
another system works its way into region by Friday night. 

There are currently no fire weather concerns at this time given
recent rains keeping the top layer of leaf debris moist coupled
with a low sun angle.
