Discussion

High pressure off the Northeast US coast will open the door for some changes around here as milder air gets pumped into the region and a cool front closes in this weekend from the Midwest. Temperatures today will rise to near the 80 degree mark and humidity will become a bit more noticeable by tomorrow in the southwest flow of air on the backside of the high pressure system. The next front will generate rain and possible thunderstorms around here from later tomorrow through tomorrow night and some of the rain will be heavy at times. Sunday will be cooler and turn less humid with early morning clouds giving way to sunshine and afternoon highs not far from 70 degrees. Nice and cool weather will continue in the Mid-Atlantic region during the early part of next week. Elsewhere, the remains of Pacific Ocean Tropical Storm Manuel will bring heavy rainfall today to an area from Texas to western Tennessee with up to 3 or 4 inches possible in some spots. One final note, anyone traveling to Penn State for tomorrow's home game better bring some rain gear.
