Discussion              

A strong cool front will sweep through the region tonight and its passage will usher in a refreshing air mass for Friday, Saturday and Sunday with comfortable temperatures and noticeably lower humidity levels. In fact, temperatures should remain at pretty comfortable levels right through the first half of next week. In terms of precipitation, additional showers are likely this morning and a thunderstorm is possible, but the afternoon should feature clearing skies and generally rain-free weather. Late in the weekend, a disturbance over the Great Lakes will drop to the south and east and it can generate some shower activity for the Mid-Atlantic region late Sunday night and/or on Monday.
