Discussion

High pressure will push into the region today providing us with quiet and warm weather, but the next cold front will bring us unsettled conditions by late tomorrow and tomorrow night. In fact, there is the chance for late day and nighttime showers and thunderstorms on Wednesday and some of the storms can be strong-to-severe. Temperatures will soar tomorrow ahead of the cold front reaching well up into the 90’s for afternoon highs, but then they’ll drop off noticeably for Thursday and Friday following the passage of the front. Looking ahead, Labor Day weekend is looking somewhat unsettled from this vantage point with the chance of additional showers and thunderstorms from time-to-time.
