Discussion
A cold front will cross the region later today and there is the chance for an afternoon shower or thunderstorm. The frontal passage will usher in colder air for late tonight and Wednesday with high temperatures likely to drop from near 80 degrees today to the lower 60’s tomorrow. Another frontal system will arrive late Friday and there will likely be a round of showers and thunderstorms to end the work week which should be followed by high pressure for Saturday, but then more rain is likely on Sunday.
