.DISCUSSION...

Temperatures will warm back to around normal Thursday, then a few
degrees above normal Friday, as southerly winds develop ahead of
an approaching low pressure. Low level moisture will also
gradually increase through late week, resulting in somewhat high
min RH values the next couple days. There is a chance for showers
as the low and associated cold front move through Friday, with dry
weather then likely Saturday into at least early Sunday.
