Morning AFD from LWX tells us why Quote Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Baltimore MD/Washington DC 409 AM EDT Thu Aug 13 2020 .SYNOPSIS... A front will stall over the Middle Atlantic today, then drift southward Friday into Saturday. The front will then lift back northward through the end of the weekend as low pressure lifts into the Ohio River Valley. && .NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/... Stalled front in the vicinity combined with a tropical air mass and passing shortwave energy promises to make the next few days interesting. For this morning, a fairly significant vort max and shortwave will move through shortly. This is already starting to cause storms to develop, and expect coverage to expand northward, maxing out during rush hour. Locally heavy rain is very possible and given the rain we had yesterday in some areas, a flash flood watch seemed prudent. Ran the watch through this evening as expect more storms to fire in the afternoon, but highest coverage likely occurs this morning with the shortwave. Exhaustion of CAPE and modest height rises/anticyclonic flow this afternoon likely keep coverage a bit reduced. Some sun will break through, but highs will only be in the 80s. By comparison, tonight looks like we will be between upper level features, so evening convection will diminish and do not expect a refiring overnight. Lows in the 60s to 70s.
