Cold front approaching the area from the northwest will lead to
increasing winds out of the southwest with gusts into the 20s and
winds shifting out of the NW into the afternoon. Precipitation not
expected with the front as moisture will be limited. High
pressure then settles over the southeastern US into the weekend
with the next chance of rain early next week.
