We are going to see great weather today with highs pushing into
the low to mid 70s. Skies will start out clear but as the
afternoon goes on we will start to see increasing mid to high 
level clouds ahead of a short wave and warm front. This short wave
and warm front will move in Thursday night into Friday morning 
and will bring the chance for some scattered showers. CAPE will be
limited and that should keep the thunderstorm chances low. QPF 
will be very light through Friday morning with just a few 
hundreths possible.
