Temperatures warm into the 70s for most across the region, but some only reach as high as the 60s.
Winds will continue to be breezy with a few stray gusts nearing 20mph.
Just to our south and west is a potent storm system that will likely bring severe storms to parts of the south. Thankfully, a large area of high pressure is pushing this system away from us and looks to keep our weekend mostly dry.
