The weekend will start with heat and humidity, but that won’t last the entire weekend.
High pressure building in south of the region will result in increasing heat and humidity for Friday and Saturday. While we’ll have a few clouds around during the day on Friday, they’ll become more widespread on Saturday as a cold front begins dropping southward from Canada. A shower or thunderstorm is possible Saturday afternoon, but most of the activity should stay well north and west of our area. Showers and thunderstorms should become more widespread Saturday evening and night. A wave of low pressure will ride along the front on Sunday, bringing in more showers with much cooler temperatures, especially near the coast. We’re not expecting a soaking rain, but any rain we get will help with the ongoing drought. Unfortunately, the rain will fall on Sunday, so it will lead to a lot of complaints about another rainy weekend, despite the fact that most of Saturday will be dry. High pressure builds in for Monday with drier weather along with seasonably mild conditions.
Thursday night: Clear to partly cloudy. Low 55-62.
