STORMS AND HEAVY RAIN FRIDAY AFTERNOON {/strong}

Friday will bring more widespread 80s across the state. Morning sunshine will give way to showers and thunderstorms for the afternoon, timing looks to be 2 to 7pm for the worst of the storms. Any storms could have heavy rain, and they’ll be slow moving. Minor flooding or ponding on roads will be possible with any afternoon storms. There could also be some gusty winds and small hail. Storms wrap up this evening. Overall the weekend has trended drier. Highs will be in the 50s and 60s for Saturday and Sunday with just slight chances for scattered showers. There should still be some areas of sun each afternoon. An area of low pressure lingering offshore will keep us cool and unsettled into next week. Monday will be in the 60s, with some upper 60s possible inland. Showers become more numerous for the evening, with a more widespread steady rain looking likely for Tuesday and into Wednesday. Highs will be in the lower 60s. We finally begin to dry out by Thursday, with just some lingering showers and temps remaining cool, in the 60s.
