Discussion              

A cool front will approach the region late today and this will increase the chance of showers and thunderstorms from later this afternoon into early Friday. A pleasant air mass will follow the passage of the front for the bulk of the day on Friday and it promises to be quite comfortably cool for tomorrow night and pleasant on Saturday. It turns warmer on Sunday with temperatures climbing well up into the 80’s by afternoon and the 90 degree mark can be reached on Monday afternoon. The next cool front will likely pass through on Monday night ushering in another comfortable air mass for next Tuesday and Wednesday.
