.DISCUSSION...
High pressure will be centered just offshore of the
Mid-Atlantic coast the next several days, clockwise flow
around the high resulting in southwest winds. This pattern
will favor warm weather for the rest of the week along
with some increasing moisture. Dewpoints will trend up
resulting in higher minimum relative humidity along with
periodic cloud cover and a chance of mainly afternoon and
evening showers and thunderstorms. The precipitation is
expected to be scattered and mainly confined to the mountains.
