Discussion              

Low pressure will ride from NW-to-SE today along a frontal boundary zone bringing us a good chance of showers during the morning and mid-day hours, maybe a thunderstorm as well. It’ll also be cooler than yesterday with highs today confined to the lower 60’s. High pressure will build back into the region on Wednesday and the second half of the work week is looking quite nice with dry and increasingly warm conditions. The weather likely becomes more unsettled this weekend with a returning chance of showers and thunderstorms.
