.DISCUSSION...
Today will be the last warm and humid day that most of us experience
in a while...as a slow moving cold front will usher in notably
cooler and less humid conditions that will persist from later
Thursday into the start of next week. The front will generate some
showers and drenching thunderstorms in the process...especially
tonight.
