A couple storms are possible this afternoon, but the warmth aloft looks to inhibit development.

Some small hail is possible but it's not as big of a concern. As this cold front slides SE, cooler air builds in for our Thursday. Afternoon readings dip to around 80° under mostly cloudy conditions. As the area of low pressure situated to our west works eastbound, a few more showers and storms are possible. Another storm system moves our way Friday into Saturday bringing more widespread showers and thunderstorms. The cold front looks to clear the region overnight Saturday with Sunday looking much better. The upper-level part of this storm will still be overhead so we can't rule out a storm or two on Sunday. Labor Day becomes much drier and pleasant too as high pressure at the surface takes over. It'll be gorgeous if you have any bbq's or family gatherings planned. Temps dip back into the 70s along with a more refreshing feel in the air. The cooler than normal trend holds through the first half of next week, with highs holding in the 70s.
