Discussion
The second half of the week and upcoming weekend will be noticeably warmer than the unseasonably chilly conditions of the past few days. As a result of sunshine today, temperatures will respond nicely and jump to the 70 degree mark for highs this afternoon. A frontal system will arrive late tonight and it may be accompanied by some shower activity and then another frontal system on Friday could result in a few showers and maybe a thunderstorm. Warm weather is likely this weekend with highs generally near the 80 degree mark on each day.
