Pleasant Stretch Throught the Weekend

• Not as cold of a start
• Pleasant and partly cloudy day
• ACHOO: High Tree Pollen, Moderate Grass Pollen
• WATCHING: Isolated severe threat returns Tuesday next week

A pleasant setup in store for the next few days. More clouds to start the day out leaves temps warmer than last night in the 40s for much of the area. Highs will reach the mid-70s as clouds begin to clear late this afternoon. Mild tonight with temps falling into the low 50s. Highs will reach the low 80s Friday. Pollen levels will remain elevated with high tree pollen and moderate levels of grass pollen.

A stretch of 80-degree days in the forecast as high pressure sits off the east coast keeping us toasty into next week. A weak cold front tries to roll into the region this weekend but will dissolve before bringing any real rain to the area. Expect dry and warm days in the 80s with mild evenings in the mid-50s through Sunday.

A stronger cold front moves in early next week. This will bring showers late Monday night to the mountains. Watching for an isolated severe threat ahead of the front Tuesday afternoon. Temps will fall back into the 40s Wednesday morning with below-average highs in the low 70s Wednesday.
