Beautiful weekend, gradual warm-up
The passage of a cold front Wednesday night brought cooler and less humid conditions that resulted in a refreshing change in the weather.
High pressure will build east from the Upper Midwest across the Great Lakes. A northwesterly flow of pleasant air will prevail. Temperatures will only reach the low 80s, after a week of heat and humidity. Lows tonight will fall into the comfortable upper 50s and low 60s.
A disturbance will pass south of Ohio over the weekend, with some high cloudiness, as high pressure shifts farther east. A light southerly flow will develop, allowing temperatures to rise into the mid-80s.
Seasonably warm and humid conditions develop next week, with opportunities for scattered showers and storms beginning on Tuesday.
