.DISCUSSION...

Cold front will move across the area tonight providing clouds, 
scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms. Best chance 
for rain is east of the Blue Ridge.

Cooler and drier weather should arrive later Friday in the wake
of a second cold front. Passage of this front will bring a 
transition to cooler brisk conditions for the weekend. 

High pressure is expected to dominate next week with moderating 
temperatures and little or no threat for precipitation until
late in the week.
