Discussion              

A strong storm will pull to the northwest of here today pushing a warm front through the region this morning and then dragging a cold front across the area early Friday.  Showers will generally be scattered through mid-afternoon, but steadier rain is possible by day’s end and is likely tonight. Some of the rain tonight can come down hard for a brief time and a thunderstorm can mix in as well with gusty winds. It turns colder later tomorrow behind the front and the weekend should turn out to be moderately cold and dry.
