The storms could become isolated strong to severe Wednesday or Wednesday night with damaging wind and hail as the reason we may see a severe t-storm warning issued.
Also, heavy rain and lightning is a concern. The thunder may wake you up overnight, in fact. Around 1 inch of rain is likely to be widespread through Thursday morning.
The front moves offshore by sunrise Thursday, but some showers may linger on the Cape through mid-morning. While sun breaks out elsewhere across the northeast.
A weaker, secondary cold front sweeps in from the north in the afternoon as this combined with a cool pool of air aloft, has the potential to trigger pop up showers or thunder across the interior through sunset.

Highs for the weekend return to the low 80s. Saturday looks dry until evening out west. Another system heads through Sunday bringing another round of scattered rain or storms.
