Discussion              

A reinforcing comfortable air mass will push into the northeastern states today with its origins in southeastern Canada. This influx of air with below-normal temperatures will limit any chances of reaching the 90 degree mark around here during the remainder of the week. In terms of rainfall, chances will be very limited through tomorrow, but then should ramp up by later Thursday and Friday with a couple of disturbances coming our way.
