Tracking a few showers tonight, clearing up for the weekend

TONIGHT: Mostly cloudy with a few showers possible through late tonight. Lows falling into the mid-upper 30s.

TOMORROW: Decreasing clouds, seasonable with highs in the upper 50s.

EXTENDED: Scattered showers continue through late this evening. The severe weather risk remains well to our southeast, but temperature will begin to drop tonight as a cold front works its way across the state. We'll drop into the mid-upper 30s by tomorrow morning, and cloud cover lingers for a few hours of the morning Saturday. As skies clear, northwest winds will keep us seasonably cool in the upper 50s. Winds shift back to the south Saturday night into Sunday, bringing highs back into the 70s to end the weekend. Next week starts off mild, but a strong closed low pressure system will slide in from the southwest Monday, bringing rain and potentially a few rumbles of thunder by Monday night. Showers continue on and off until the low slides east of us Wednesday, but cooler air starts to move in Wednesday into Thursday. Highs only reach the upper 40s to around 50, and there may even be a few flurries for some areas Thursday morning. Rain totals will be around 1 to 1.5" with next week's system, and we look to bounce back to around 60 by the end of next week.
