Tracking a drier trend into the weekend

THURSDAY: Those showers overnight have pushed southeast of the area for the most part. We’ll be tracking some drier conditions throughout the day. Sunshine will return this afternoon, but temperatures will held near 70 with a steady northwest wind.

TONIGHT: Once those skies clear up this afternoon, they’ll stay clear overnight. Temperatures will cool off into the upper 40’s, one of the coolest nights we’ve seen in a few days.

EXTENDED: A cooler start’s not holding us back Friday! More sunshine will push temperatures into the low to mid 70’s by the afternoon. We’ll warm up a bit more kicking off the weekend, with highs getting back into the upper 70’s. Highs top out in the upper 70’s Sunday, but rain chances will move back in toward the afternoon. That looks to be the start of a trend around the area, with more shots at rain coming and going for the first half of next week. That frontal boundary leading to those renewed rounds of rain Monday and Tuesday will start to slide south Wednesday. That will take the rain with it, but move in some slightly cooler air for the rest of next week, with highs backing off into the 60’s.
