Discussion              

High pressure remains in control today as we end the work week providing us with some sunshine and light winds.  The main system of interest this weekend will be a strong cold front that’ll edge its way through the Ohio Valley on Saturday and then likely generate some soaking rainfall around here from late tomorrow into Saturday night. Strong-to-severe thunderstorms are a threat as well with this frontal passage and the time period of concern for the active weather in the metro region will be 4-11pm. It’ll turn cooler on Sunday following the passage of this initial cold front and then a secondary cold front will pass through Sunday night and usher in even cooler air for Monday.
