 .DISCUSSION...
 High pressure will keep the region dry and warm through Wednesday, 
 though overnight river valley fog will cause localized visibility 
 reductions each morning.
 
 Shower and thunderstorm chances return with a cold front Wednesday 
 night into early Friday morning. Training thunderstorms could result 
 in localized heavy rain, bringing at least a low-end risk of flash 
 flooding for some locations, primarily on Thursday, with some storms 
 Thursday afternoon potentially being strong to severe. 
 
 The upcoming weekend looks to feature seasonably warm temperatures 
 and at least some potential for showers and storms.
