Expect partly to mostly sunny skies today with high temperatures reaching the upper 70s across the north and lower 80s from the Highlands down to the coast. A cold front will bring a chance for scattered showers and an isolated thunderstorm this afternoon, though this activity will mostly be confined to the North Woods and the St. John Valley, leaving most other locations dry. As the front dissipates tonight over the area, watch out for patchy fog developing overnight. Predominantly dry weather will continue through Saturday, with comfortable daily highs in the 70s to near 80°F. Our next best chance for widespread rain and thunderstorms arrives Sunday afternoon and lasts into Monday. While rain is likely, precipitation totals are expected to remain modest, so we aren't anticipating any drought-busting rainfall to significantly help with the developing drought conditions across the state.
