DAYS 1-5 (MAY 4-8)
\nWe remain in the warm, summer-like air mass for one more day until a cold front crosses the region tonight. There will be a threat of showers and a few thunderstorms today, but the severity of any storms should be limited by abundant cloud-cover through midday, then the risk of storms should be muted by drying air by the time the actual front arrives this evening. A brief shot of northwesterly flow at the surface will cool it down as the weekend arrives, but the front that goes by is never going to get very far to the southeast of the region, and will serve as the running board for some additional cloudiness on Saturday and eventually some areas of rain Sunday as a wave of low pressure moves up along the front, passing southeast of the region. High pressure will finally push it all further south early next week. Forecast details…

DAYS 6-10 (MAY 9-13)
