After some fair and cool weather tonight and Friday, a more unsettled pattern arrives for the weekend and into early next week. An upper trough moves across the Great Lakes and Northeast Friday through Sunday. Several short waves and surface features will keep chances for showers in the high chance to likely rains for Saturday and again for Sunday night and Monday. This will bring some beneficial rains to the region. A thunderstorm is possible Saturday afternoon and evening. Severe weather is not presently expected. It's a bit early for specific rainfall amounts, but a quarter to one half of inch of rain is possible for most areas.
