WEATHER BLOG: Passing Showers

High pressure centered over the mid-Atlantic will continue to build east of the region into tonight as a slow moving frontal system approaches from the west. A round of heavy rain will impact the area as early as Wednesday night or Thursday.

Clouds will start to build in to the region from the south tonight as flow turns out of the southeast allowing for the increase in low and mid-level moisture. At the same time, a warm front will begin to push northward into the early part of the upcoming week. This will bring some spotty shower activity to mainly western parts of the region Monday morning and afternoon. As the warm front lifts north, it will lead to a stronger southerly flow ahead of a strengthening storm which will be centered near Chicago Tuesday afternoon. Tuesday will be one of the warmest days of the week. Wednesday looks like another warm day with showers becoming more widespread. A cold front will follow bringing steadier and heavier rain Wednesday and Wednesday night.
