It’s been a wild weather week that started with a tornado outbreak across half a dozen states in the South, and torrential rain fall that dropped as much as 2 feet in Florida, and as much as 6-8″ across the Northeast (resulting in incredible scenes like this landslide in Baltimore).

Fortunately, the weather has taken a turn for the better and will remain that way much of the coming week. This weekend is shaping up to be a nice one with temperatures on Saturday and Sunday reaching into the upper 60s to the low 70s across the region. There is a chance on both days of popup showers or thunderstorms in the afternoon, especially in inland areas with better daytime heating.

We’re finally turning the corner on warmer spring temperatures as the start to next week Monday-Wednesday will continue to feature high temperatures consistently in the low-mid 60s (about average). Dry and mostly sunny skies should also predominate as a ridge of high pressure (see above) builds in over our region.
