A weakening cold front will bring some showers to parts of the

later tonight into Saturday with just scattered showers, and also
dry time built in between the showers. Another slow moving cold
front will pass across the area Saturday night through Sunday

few rumbles of thunder. High pressure then returns Monday, allowing
