As it spins its way east southeast across the region, a new surface low will form to our south and slide northeastward to well east of the region between tonight and early Friday. This will help turn our wind more from the east and eventually northeast, then north as the system moves away. Occasional shower chances continue, with the window of highest opportunity being from this afternoon through midday Thursday. Additional diurnal showers can develop Friday with more sun&#8217;s heating. Any showers that are born of tall enough clouds can contain graupel or small hail due to the much colder air aloft and the size of the precipitation not allowing it to melt back to rain before reaching the ground.  This weekend we will be rid of the upper low with high pressure building in. This will give us dry weather with a milder trend, especially away from the coast. Enough cool air lingers aloft for the development of fair weather clouds on Saturday but these should be largely absent from Sunday&#8217;s sky.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TODAY: Partly sunny, then mostly cloudy. Scattered showers this afternoon, some of which can be mixed with graupel or small hail. Drizzle may develop in some eastern coastal areas by evening. Highs 54-61, coolest coast. Wind E 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TONIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Chance of showers and drizzle. Lows 43-50. Wind NE 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>THURSDAY: Mostly cloudy. Chance of showers and drizzle. Highs 46-53. Wind NE 5-15 MPH, higher gusts especially in eastern coastal areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>THURSDAY NIGHT: Mostly cloudy. A passing shower possible. Lows 40-47. Wind N 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>FRIDAY: Variably cloudy. Chance of showers. Highs 51-58. Wind N 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>FRIDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 41-48.
