The thunderstorm risk for tonight has come down significantly, but there is

High pressure will remain across the southeastern states and

gradually approaches from the north. This pattern will result in
daily shower and thunderstorm chances through Friday. Warm and
humid conditions will continue through Thursday before
temperatures decline as the front pushes south Friday into
Saturday.
