Discussion
A slow-moving cold front has worked its way through the region and today will turn out to be cooler, breezy and less humid than yesterday. A second cold front will approach the region late tomorrow night and showers are likely to return as low pressure forms along the frontal boundary zone. The passage of that second cold front will bring an even cooler air mass into the eastern states for the Friday, Saturday, and Sunday time period with generally rain-free conditions. More rain is a threat for the early part of next week as another low pressure likely heads this way. As the central and eastern states experience a chill down in coming days, the western states will get hotter and stay rain-free and this will enhance their already rather high wildfire threat.
