.DISCUSSION...

A cold front advancing into the districts Thursday will not only
support another round of afternoon showers and storms for portions
of the region, but will also introduce drier air on the backside
of the passage. RH percentages will remain in the 40`s this
afternoon, but through the end of the week and into the weekend,
a dip into the low and mid 30`s is expected. Mixing heights
Thursday and Friday will linger around 6-7kft, with heights this
weekend near 10-11kft. Northerly 20ft winds are expected through
the period, between 5-10 mph. Convective influence will support
instances of variable and gusty winds Thurs/Fri.
