.DISCUSSION...
Dry weather returns through the end of the work week and into
the first half of the weekend as high pressure once again builds
in across the region. Temperatures will remain cooler than
those typical of late-August today but will gradually rise
closer to normal Friday and even slightly above for Saturday.
Chances for showers and thunderstorms return for the end of the
weekend and into the beginning of next week, courtesy of the
development of an unsettled pattern, with temperatures falling
back closer to and even below normal.
