High pressure to our south will give us a south-southwesterly flow of warm and more humid air today. A weak disturbance will give us a low chance of showers this afternoon with a better chance of showers tonight.
Monday looks to be dry but humid with seasonably warm temperatures as a weak high pressure builds into our area.
Very unsettled weather Tuesday through Thursday with showers and possibly some strong thunderstorms. It will be quite humid through this period. At this time it is rather difficult when the showers occur as a front will be close to our area.
Friday through the start of the weekend looks to be less humid as high pressure tries to build into our area, however there still will be a low chance of afternoon showers both days.
