Here is a look at the weather features that will affect the region
over the next several days.

Chances for showers will increase through tonight as low pressure
tracks well to the north. A cold front will move through late
tonight into Saturday morning, ushering in gusty winds Saturday
and cooler conditions for Saturday night through Monday. High 
pressure builds overhead Monday, before another frontal system 
arrives by mid-week. This brings the next chance for showers to 
the area.
