KEY MESSAGE 1... Dry weather forecast through the middle of next week with near normal temperatures.

High pressure remains in place across western PA this afternoon, with ridging extending southward through the Mid Atlantic. Meanwhile Subtropical Storm Josephine remains off the coast of New England and continues to rapidly accelerate away from the CONUS as it treks northeastward. Looking aloft, a dry mid level shortwave trough is diving southward through central PA into MD, while broad longwave ridging remains in place across the entirety of the eastern US.

The dry shortwave will move through late tonight into Friday, with little impact to our daily weather other than to increase cloud cover as winds take on a more northeasterly component through the day. Post-frontal stratocu is forecast across the Coastal Plain and Northeast Piedmont on Friday in the wake of the front as winds take on a more northeasterly component, although there should still be more clouds than sun. Temps should be a few degrees cooler Friday afternoon vs. today.

After that, weak high pressure should build in again from the north, allowing temperatures to moderate a bit but still remain within a category of normal for late October. Another dry shortwave trough could swing through the area by the middle of next week but precip chances look remote at best and we'll stick with a dry forecast for the entirety of the next 7 days.
