Discussion              

Today will be on the cool side of normal for this time of year with low pressure meandering off the coast and there is the chance for some drizzle at times or an occasional shower and thunderstorm. High pressure will build into the northeastern states on Thursday and result in nice weather around here right into the upcoming. Temperatures will remain pretty comfortable for the late week and upcoming weekend with highs generally not far from the 80 degree mark. Another frontal system could arrive early next week with the threat of some shower activity by Sunday night or Monday.
