Here is a great website for those of you who want to check the weather conditions for the next seven days:
http://www.nws.noaa.gov/forecasts/graphical/sectors/midatlanticWeek1.php
It is a graphical representation of high/low temps; precip; etc. Sometimes the map graphic does not load properly - just check back a bit later and it should work fine.
This graphical version gives you a “quick and dirty” view of the mid-atlantic or other areas of the trail. You don’t have to search for specific cities or locations.
