.DISCUSSION...
Cloudy skies and warm conditions continuing across the area this
afternoon. Surface winds are southerly and gusting up to near 30
mph, but they are expected to weaken a bit overnight tonight. The
main story is the multiple rounds of rain the northwestern part of
the area will see due to a stalled frontal boundary. Persistant
rain and potential for severe storms will help keep RH up above
70% in these areas tomorrow. Areas southeast of the front will be
slightly drier at around 55%. Rain will be more widespread across
the region Saturday, before cooler and drier conditions move in
for next week.
