Discussion              

Temperatures reached the 70 degree mark on Tuesday and will flirt with the 80 degree mark later today and again on Thursday afternoon just ahead of the next cool frontal system.  There can be a shower or thunderstorm on occasion during the next couple of days, but much of the time will be rain-free. In fact, any late day or evening thunderstorms on Thursday can be on the strong side. A cool front passes through on Thursday night and the work week will end on a slightly cooler note and then colder air will follow for Easter Sunday following the passage of a another cold front on Saturday night.
