As another low pressure comes through the area this afternoon, showers and storms will be on the increase. Instability will be high enough for severe storms which could include tornadoes. If you are caught in storms they will be heavy rain producers so localized flooding is possible. The storms will come to an end this evening.
The weekend will remain hot and humid. Tomorrow looks like temps up in the upper 80s to mid 90s, but without storms except maybe in the mountains. Sunday will see another disturbance move through so a better chance of storms.
The week next week is looking similar to this. Steamy with a chance of storms almost daily!
Tropics remain very calm!

Rough weather day ahead - Hot tomorrow - unsettled weekend
With a very moist air mass in place, the atmosphere will become unstable and produce numerous showers and storms. As the day progresses the instability will get to a point in which severe storms will be possible. The likely risk from the severe storms will be high winds, but isolated tornadoes and some hail could also occur. Heavy rains could result in localized flooding so please be careful.
Eventually the activity will die down tonight. Tomorrow will feature a lot of sun and possibly the hottest day of the year, with mid 90s and high humidity temps will feel in the low 100s for many.
Friday will see another good chance of showers and storms.
Unsettled conditions will continue both Saturday and Sunday with more storms possible, but activity will mainly be afternoons and scattered. Temps will remain in the mid and upper 80s.
This should continue into Monday.

Beautiful day! Most of the week is looking dry
After a rainy day in the southern part of the region, a nice sunny day is going to be in store for most, except the southernmost regions. Highs will be around 80 north and close to 90 in the south. Dry conditions will remain this week with a increase in humidity and warmer conditions being felt this coming weekend. his coming weekend typical Summer like pattern with afternoon showers and storms a good bet.

Nice dry stretch of weather!
After weeks of relentless rain chances, we have a change this week! Dry conditions with Temperatures pretty much hovering in the 80s to lower 90s.
Northern areas (Frederickburg to Charlottesville to Chincoteague) low to mid 80s through Wednesday. Near 90 through Friday.
South, mid and Upper 80s through Wednesday, 90 - 93 degrees Thursday through Saturday.
As of now, calling for a Sunny week, but Wednesday could hold an isolated storm, and maybe a better chance of a shower or storm over Southwestern VA and North Carolina Friday.
All for now! Enjoy the weather!

HOT weather on the way! Storminess too!
Rainy in northern Virginia and Maryland this morning! Showers and storms should clear the area later this morning making way for a very warm to hot day! Temp will soar to the mid 80s north and the Low and Mid 90s across the southern regions. Hot conditions will remain through Saturday along with rain chances as showers and storms will be possible, especially Friday Night and Saturday. Temps will be upper 80s to mid 90s across the region.
Though drier air does make it to the area, widespread 80s to low 90s seem common through mid next week, about 80 northern areas and about 90 in the southern parts of Virginia and North Carolina.

Rainy south of Charlottesville to Fredericksburg and south - Cool and Cloudy north
A lot of rain had caused some flooding in Southwestern Virginia and most of Western North Carolina. Rain looks to continue in these regions while the Northern third of Virginia into Maryland will be cloudy and cool with maybe a few showers. Unseasonably cool with highs mainly in the 70s.
A repeat tomorrow on cooler conditions, but rain will make as spread further north. Highs in places will struggle out of the 60s and others low to mid 70s. Again, with higher rain amounts in the south, flooding is possible.
Summer like conditions make a return and last straight through the weekend with highs rebounding to the 80s Thursday and then mid and upper 80s to low 90s through the weekend. Humid air with afternoon storms will be possible daily.

Meso Convective Complex across southern 2/3rds of VA
A meso convective complex (MCC) has developed over the southern 2/3rds
of Virginia. Rain will come to an end fown there a bit later today.
For nothern areas, temps will be cooler with highs in the 70s. Cooler
air for region the next few days as highs remain in the 70s and maybe
60s Wednesday, especially in the north. Moist air could mean night
time drizzle. Winds along the coast to increase and dangerous rip
tides will form. Scattered showers and isolated storm chances increase

Storms possible again today - Some severe - some with heavy rains - Not a Storm Free weekend Forecast!
Yesterday's rains occurred over the southern half of Virginia and over North Carolina. Today, scattered convection will again fire across the region with some severe and heavy rain.
The weekend looks less dry, and I could kick myself as I felt that a clear weekend was not entirely possible. Unlike recent days with a high chance of storms, chances will lessen. It is typical summer time when afternoon storms could fire and thus we have a continued chance of storms.Things will finally dry out, based on current models, by Monday.
Highs will remain in the 80s through the weekend.. upper 80s south, lower 80s north. Of note, after this stalled front pushes further south, Virginians could see a much nicer few days with highs in the 70s!
A return to storms will begin Wednesday next week, area wide Thursday.
The Tropics remain quiet for now.
