I was more booming my call for a MRGL than excited about severe potential, but I thought we’d do ok with rain this evening.  It looks like a miss now, and you’re correct that we will quickly return to drought if this persists. 

Looks like the heat builds in at the end of the week.

Thursday seems as though it may carry potential - but it's ages away.

 Forcing does appear to be
quite strong with the deepening trough, so at this point it does
seem plausible for there to be at the very least some strong
thunderstorms around Thursday afternoon and evening. This is
supported quite well by the machine learning guidance by
UCAR/NCAR which has a targeted area of severe weather potential
over the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast. Will continue to monitor
for trends in the guidance but regardless, the general idea that
a front will bring showers and thunderstorms to the area is
consistent with the guidance. Improving weather should return by
Friday and into next weekend as high pressure returns.
