..DISCUSSION...
 
WARM SUMMER LIKE TEMPERATURES CONTINUE WEDNESDAY WITH HIGHS CLIMBING
INTO THE UPPER 80S AND LOWER 90S FOR THE LOWLANDS. AN UPPER LEVEL
DISTURBANCE WILL HOWEVER BRING AN INCREASED CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS.
 
A COLD FRONT WILL PUSH THROUGH THURSDAY AFTERNOON AND
EVENING...WHICH WILL BRING A GOOD CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS TO THE AREA FROM NORTHWEST TO SOUTHEAST. A FEW
STORMS MAY BE ON THE STRONG SIDE...AND A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM
CANNOT BE RULED OUT.
 
AN AUTUMN PREVIEW IS IN STORE FRIDAY BEHIND THE COLD FRONT WITH HIGH
TEMPERATURES ONLY IN THE UPPER 60S TO NEAR 70 FOR THE LOWLANDS...
ALONG WITH A BREEZY NORTH WIND.  A FEW LIGHT SHOWERS ARE POSSIBLE
MAINLY IN THE EASTERN MOUNTAINS.
 
HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS INTO OUR NEIGHBORHOOD ON SATURDAY WITH
CONTINUED COOL TEMPERATURES. A SLOW WARM UP BEGINS ON SUNDAY...
BUT TEMPERATURES WILL STILL REMAIN MILD.
