An unseasonably warm and humid airmass was over the Mid Atlantic region during the 19th. A strong area of low pressure moved into southeastern Canada during the afternoon, and a strong cold front associated with it approached and moved through the Mid Atlantic and Northeast in the evening. As a result, numerous showers and isolated thunderstorms developed. There was plenty of wind energy above the surface, therefore some of the isolated thunderstorms and even heavier showers produced strong wind gusts.
