After a cloudy Wednesday, sunshine will become more common heading into Thursday as high pressure remains in control across the region. Dry air will continue to keep humidity levels comfortable, making Thursday another pleasant summer day before a more active weather pattern returns on Friday. Afternoon highs will remain in the 70s while noticeably lower humidity keeps conditions comfortable for anyone spending time outdoors. The weather pattern begins to change Friday as a surface low approaches the region. Shower chances remain in the forecast through the weekend, but it does not appear to be a washout.
