FORECAST DISCUSSION:

Good Wednesday Evening,

We continue to watch as showers and a few storms move through the area this evening as a weak boundary will sag south. Overnight with the boundary sagging south, expect a few isolated showers still in the forecast with a rumble of thunder or two, with lows in the middle 60s. It is possible some spots that had some good rains today, could have some patchy fog toward daybreak on Thursday.

Thursday expect a few isolated showers mainly in the morning, with partly cloudy skies possible in the afternoon, with highs in the middle 80s. It will be much cooler Thursday night with lows in the upper 50s to near 60. Expect a downright perfect day on Friday with tons of sunshine and highs in the middle 80s with low humidity.

Friday night will be cool again, with a bigger jump in temps for Saturday with lows near 60 and highs in the upper 80s to near 90 under sunny skies. High pressure that gave us great weather for Friday and Saturday will depart east-southeast for Sunday. We will still be very warm and muggy with highs in the lower 90s with an isolated t-storm possible later in the day.

Monday and Tuesday we will have an unsettled, but very warm weather pattern. With well needed chances of rain and storms both days and highs in the mid to upper 80s. Rain chances will remain, but reduce for next Wednesday with highs in the upper 80s to near 90.
