FRIDAY  MAY 19, 2017  5:52 A.M.

Another unseasonably warm and humid morning across the area on Friday as temperatures range from the mid 70s in Clifton to the low 60s in some inland areas; skies are mostly clear and the winds are light.

Another hot day is in store for us today as warm air continues to flow around a Bermuda high offshore.  A cold front will move through the area this afternoon with only a slight chance of a thunderstorm.  Cooler and much drier air will filter in by late tonight.

Much cooler on the weekend but we should see sunshine both days, high temperatures will be around 70, temperatures Saturday night will drop down to the 40s.

A trough of low pressure will likely cause showers and thunderstorms on Monday.  High pressure will give us a nice day on Tuesday but another low pressure system will give the area a good chance of showers Wednesday and Thursday.  Temperatures next week will average near normal.
