.DISCUSSION...
Sprawling high pressure centered near Chicago this evening will
gradually build over our region through Saturday. This will provide
us with beautiful weather and comfortable conditions through at
least the first half of the weekend...then a weak moisture starved
cold front will fall apart over our region on Sunday. Our next
chance for widespread shower activity will come Tuesday and
Wednesday of next week when mid summer humidity will return.
