Moist. Damp. Saturated. Sloppy. Pick One Any One.

The threat of showers and thunderstorms will continue today as a cold front to the west pushes eastward. The threat of showers and boomshakalakas will persist through Friday before conditions start to dry out during the weekend. A cool down will take place during the second half of the week behind the passage of the cold front. Highs in western PA will dip into the 50s and 60s while DC looks at 60s and 70s during the late week. Stay dry and be safe if you are outdoors in the thunderstorms. Take care!
