.DISCUSSION...

A frontal boundary will bring wetting showers to areas north of 
a Bluefield to Lynchburg line today with less coverage
further south. This front will also keep temperatures
cooler in the showery areas and warmer in North Carolina.

A strong cold front brings an airmass change later Friday with
blustery winds by Friday evening and colder temperatures for
the weekend. Dry and seasonable weather is expected next week.
