[ Wednesday, Oct. 9, 2002 ]
An area of low pressure moving across southern Canada will push a weak frontal boundary through the Commonwealth today. This system will be moisture starved. As a result, expect to see little more than a good deal of cloudiness throughout the day. These clouds will allow for cooler temperatures than we've seen in recent days. Our next chance of rain will occur on Friday when a stronger cold front approaces the region.
