A disturbance lifting northeastward across the Southeast will reach the middle Atlantic States during the weekend. Additional rainfall should total 1 to 2 inches, with higher amounts possible in a few spots.
Meanwhile, a strong, slow-moving cold front will cross the Mississippi Valley during the weekend before moving into the eastern U.S. early next week.
Severe thunderstorms may occur along the front, especially on Saturday in the middle and lower Mississippi Valley and neighboring areas.
