The big upcoming change will be the transition to an upper level ridge. Temperatures will move back towards the low 70s by the weekend—

NAEFS Max Temperature forecast for late Saturday. Also visible are the 250 mb (jet stream level) contours showing the ridge that will slowly move towards us. Temperatures near 70 on Saturday and above 70 on Sunday are expected.

Thursday will be similar to today, Wednesday, although there should be noticeably fewer scattered sprinkles and perhaps some more breaks of sun.

A similar forecast for Friday.

The weekend looks to be dry with more sun!
