Afternoon Clouds, Slightly Warmer

The influence of our upper air trough will have completely vanished by this afternoon as a large upper ridge dominates much of the region. Despite the ridge re-establishing its territory today, temperatures aloft only warm slightly compared to yesterday. In fact, highs later today should top out near 92. We'll stay dry again this afternoon with only a few cumulus clouds dotting the sky. By this evening, it appears that we'll be more cloudy than the previous two nights. More importantly, winds will begin to veer to the southeast and moisture will subsequently increase, which should keep low temperatures near 71 tomorrow morning.

The weekend weather looks pretty good. Saturday will be dry with highs in the low to mid 90s. There will be a slight chance for afternoon showers on Sunday afternoon with highs in the lower 90s.
