Staying mainly dry and warming up through the weekend

An upper-level air pattern favorable for long-standing high pressure will take shape over the next few days, keeping skies mainly sunny and limiting moisture transport into the region. The one area to watch heading into the weekend is a coastal low sitting near the Carolinas that will bring significant rain totals along the east coast, but the strength of the high pressure further north will limit the movement of the low northward.

Pleasant today, warm tomorrow with evening showers

Today will be similar to yesterday with smoky sunshine and a few clouds at times. It will be warm this afternoon with highs in the upper 70s. Dry weather will persist too. Tonight will become mostly clear with temperatures around 50°. High pressure currently in control will be replaced by another high pressure system later this week. A front separating the two highs arrives tomorrow evening. While tomorrow will start sunny, clouds will increase as the front arrives and a very brief shower may occur in a few locations. The moisture is lacking and the front will move quickly, so not a lot of rain is expected.

Another Saturday with showers, drier for much of the upcoming forecast

Clouds will increase through the morning into the afternoon, with showers becoming more likely after 3 PM. It will not rain all afternoon, but 1-2 hours of scattered showers as the line works through is likely.
