.DISCUSSION...

Periods of showers will move into the region today, becoming more
widespread tonight into early Saturday morning. Despite increasing
cloud cover, ceilings will remain high enough and transport winds
fast enough to support fair vent rates. Cooler, drier and less
humid conditions return Saturday night through Monday. Additional
rain chances then return by the middle of next week as yet
another frontal system pushes across the region.
