Discussion
A cold front will push just to the south of here later today leading to improving weather conditions and the weekend should start off on a comfortable note with moderate humidity levels. The low-level wind flow will change on Sunday allowing for more moisture to push back into the area and the next upper-level system will head in this direction. The combination of the increasing moisture and approaching wave of energy will create an increasing chance of showers and thunderstorms on Sunday and the threat of rain can carry into Monday as well.
