Above normal temperatures are expected today through Thursday. Record highs are possible Monday and Tuesday with upper 80s to low 90s possible. A frontal system will slowly sink south into the area Wednesday and will stall out across northern portions of the area before moving on as a cold front Thursday night. 20-30% shower and storm chances infiltrate the northwest portions of the area Tuesday night. Chances then increase throughout the day Wednesday from northwest to southeast to 60-80%, then dropping down to a near area wide 50-60% Wednesday evening and overnight. Chances then continue on Thursday with a bit more of a gradient with 20-60% chances from southeast to northwest. Right now there are some early indications of the potential for severe weather along the frontal boundary and in the vicinity of the attendant sfc low, but uncertainty remains high at this point. Something to keep an eye on. Chances taper off by Friday morning.
Behind the cold front are cooler temperatures for Friday through the weekend. Temperatures could be around 10 degrees below normal on Saturday, in the upper 50s to low 60s.
