Modest instability generated scattered showers and thunderstorms around the area on Thursday, with a few locations picking up anywhere from 0.50"-1.00" of rainfall producing localized flash flooding. Expect drier and more stable conditions on Friday with highs in the mid-70s, southwest winds 5-15 mph during the afternoon. Looking at a nice weekend ahead with cooler temperatures as a trough of low pressure pushes into the region. Daytime temperatures will cool from the mid-70s on Saturday to the upper 60s on Sunday, along with gusty west winds to 25 mph at times. Overnight lows will also dip back into the 30s and lower 40s. This trough will move through the area early next week, holding temperatures slightly below average. This trough may also draw in enough tropical moisture for some showers on Monday or Tuesday, but this is not forecast to be a widespread heavy rain event at this time, with most of the deeper moisture headed east of us, however, this is subject to change and will be monitored! Fair and gradually warmer weather will return later next week as we enjoy fairly seasonal conditions.
