Discussion              

A strong cool front will cross the area later today and it will be accompanied by showers – some of which can be heavy at times – and an afternoon or evening thunderstorm is possible as well with gusty winds.  It’ll turn moderately cooler on Friday as high pressure builds into the area. A strong upper-level trough of low pressure should rotate into the northeastern states early next week and it could turn quite a bit chillier here by Tuesday.
