[ Wednesday April 30, 2003 ]
Mild, spring-like conditions will continue today, as an area of high pressure moves off the Atlantic Coast. This system will keep skies partly sunny, with just some high clouds spreading through the state from west to east. Winds will veer to the southwest overnight tonight, keeping overnight lows in the 50s. This southwesterly flow will advect warmer, moister air into the region on Thursday, but will also increase the chance of showers and thunderstorms during the afternoon. Showers and storms will continue into Friday, as a cold front passes through the state.
