Cold front moves through bringing showers and storms

Scattered showers and thunderstorms with brief periods of heavy rain and gusty winds will occupy most of today as highs reach the upper 70s. While Wednesday won't have consistent rainfall, make sure to grab the umbrella or rain jacket before you head out the door. Residual showers arrive late after midnight tonight, helping lows cool down to around 60F. Our area enters a quieter period with sunnier skies and cooler temperatures Thursday and Friday post-cold front, dragging highs down into the low 70s going into the weekend. Rain chances never disappear completely on Saturday or Sunday as a slow-moving cutoff area of low pressure sits over Canada, but we are trending in a drier direction in the short term.

Today: Scattered thunderstorms. High 78.

Tonight: Showers. Low 60.

Thursday: Mostly sunny. High 74.

Friday: Partly cloudy. High 71.
