Right now, the models disagree on the strength of the storm and how far north it will move with most models keeping it south of our area. The GFS model brings the storm further north, bringing rain and windy conditions into our area.

As a result, there is a chance of rain developing during the day Thursday and lasting into Friday. Highs will be in the mid 60s.

FRIDAY: The storm will be departing the region during the day. If the storm makes it this far north, it will be tapering off. Highs will be in the mid to upper 60s.

WEEKEND OUTLOOK: With high pressure building in, expect a pleasant weekend. Highs will be in the upper 60s to near 70° on Saturday and low to mid 70s on Sunday under mostly sunny skies.
