WARMER THROUGH LATE WEEK INTO THE WEEKEND

1. Warm front crawls through for the end of the week. Its progression from south to north ever so slowly will mean cloudy skies and fluctuating rain chances for the end of the week.
 
2. First chance at any showers will be Wednesday afternoon and night, but areas from NYC south and west will see the highest likelihood of rainfall. Areas east and north will see little to no rain for Wednesday through early Thursday (in spite of this, clouds build in all areas Wednesday night into Thursday).

3. Showers for all areas Thursday morning  will give way to mainly overcast with no rain in the afternoon and at night. Chances for showers will remain widely scattered through Saturday night. Most of the time from Thursday night through Saturday afternoon should be dry with plenty of clouds. Warmer temps and a bit humid for Friday and Saturday.

4. Saturday night, a cold front sweeps through with our best shot at widespread showers and thunderstorms. Temps behind the front don’t drop off much. Sunday is mainly dry, with lower 70s most spots.

5. Warm week overall next week, but signs in the long term are hinting at a significant mid-month cool shot
