Today: Clouds take over as our next weather system approaches. Showers will be fighting dry air as they attempt to push in from the west and south, so we expect wet weather to be fairly isolated today. Still, some rain could sneak into the metro during the afternoon with chances arriving even earlier to the south and west. A rumble of thunder or two is possible. Humidity will be more noticeable today and even higher tomorrow.

Friday & This Weekend: Rain and storm chances are highest on Friday, but lower chances linger into the weekend. This rain will be tied to an upper-level weather disturbance rather than a strong front at the surface. Typically, these kinds of systems pose a lower threat of severe thunderstorms, but they can drop locally heavy downpours and produce some brief wind gusts. We certainly don’t expect washout weather as we head into the weekend, but we want you to be prepared for a ing shower or storm. Meanwhile, humidity will be more noticeable as moisture in the atmosphere increases.
