Discussion
The combination of a warm front and a cold front will result in some rain around here during the next 24 hours and perhaps a thunderstorm or two. The south-to-north moving warm front arrives late tonight resulting in occasional rain after midnight and a chance for a thunderstorm. A cold front will sweep through by mid-day Friday and it will be preceded by very mild conditions tomorrow morning, occasional rain, and perhaps a thunderstorms. The winds will pick up noticeably tomorrow afternoon following the cold frontal passage gusting past 30 mph or so. It turns colder tomorrow night with clearing skies and less wind and stays on the chilly side this weekend.
