[ Thursday, Apr. 24, 2003 ]
After a cool but sunny day yesterday, today looks to be about the same except with milder temperatures as winds shift from northwesterly to westerly. These conditions will last through tomorrow morning until clouds begin to build in advance of a low pressure system forming in the Tennessee Valley. The chance for rain will increase into tomorrow night, and a cloudy and rainy weekend looks to be likely as well. High pressure will then move over the area, keeping skies pretty clear as the last week of class begins.
