Key Message 1…
While high pressure and an upper-level ridge will remain dominant on Thursday, a cold front will move into the area from the northwest on Friday. This will bring a chance for widespread showers and possible thunderstorms. Low instability will limit the severe risk and there is no risk for widespread flash flooding, however, heavy showers are possible due to the presence a low level jet. Due to this, localized flash flooding in low-lying and other flood prone areas is possible. As the front exits to the south, sunny skies and cooler temperatures will return for the weekend.
