.DISCUSSION...

I cannot get Friday in the forecast table, but I have added a
narrative.

Wednesday looks wet.

Look for warmer and more humid conditions today, with RH only
getting down to 45-50 pct.

A cold front pushing southeast across the region late Wednesday
and Wednesday night will be preceded by numerous showers and
thunderstorms with brief heavy rain.

Following the cold front, mainly dry but warm weather with
comfortable humidity will return for Thursday and Friday, and
possibly extend through much or all of Saturday.
