Record cold, wet and cloudy in DC...Forecasts keep getting colder too... at this rate i would not be surprised to see a freeze in the forecast. Raleigh looks nasty also... cloudy and 80 exact now, down from 82 this morning. Thats for sunday... my birthday

Oh no, a high of 80, how brutally cold! It sounds pretty nice to me.
DC hasn't had a max temp in the 60s in July since 2001. It's only happened 3 times since 1941. Would be rare for sure.
We'll see what the actual pressure is Saturday morning but at 994mb strength storm it would be unusually strong for a Summer land storm.
Latest Euro has the 994mb storm over Maryland Saturday morning. Flash flooding across the MD/DE/NJ/PA areas.
Why this storm is happening...

Upper-level low will track from near Lake Winnepeg into the
Ohio Valley Friday, and into our area Friday night. This system
will interact with a cold front to our north, causing surface
low pressure to develop along the boundary. The upper-level low
and surface low will strengthen as it moves into our area Friday
night. Coastal low pressure is expected to develop near the
Delmarva Peninsula Friday night. This system is expected to
remain nearly stationary around this area through Saturday
night. This is because the closed upper-level low cuts off from
the jetstream.
Why does it feel like the rain keeps occurring on the weekend? Enough already lol.
I'm hoping everything slides to our south again, that's been the trend this summer. Philly, Central and South Jersey have been cashing in on all of the good storm threats we've had. If there isn't any thunder and lightning involved I don't want it. Save the stratiform rain for January.

Lol, that rain becomes snow come January and NYC is the sweet spot instead of DC. I would love that as i would have an even larger margin of safety from these massive storms and their cold.
