May will start out on a sour note as a stationary front lingers to our south. Mainly cloudy skies with cooler conditions will move into the region today. A stray shower is expected this afternoon. Rain showers and thunderstorms will arrive this evening as an area of low pressure develops. Once the system passes, partly cloudy skies will return tomorrow. High pressure will build into the Northeast on Thursday. As a result, an abundance of sunshine and seasonable temperatures will persist for the remainder of the week.
