Discussion:
A cold frontal boundary swept through the southeast last night bringing much cooler temperatures and foggy morning conditions on Thursday. Highs will remain in the upper 80's with lows in the mid-60's for the remainder of the week into the weekend. The trough that came in Wednesday bringing the severe weather will continue to advance out to the east with clearing skies into Friday. Friday will bring sunshine into the Commonwealth with highs reaching back up slightly from Thursday and Friday as a ridge of high pressure and surface high pressure builds in behind the exiting trough.

The next chance at showers/thunderstorms will come Sunday as the surface high moves off the Atlantic Coast and a southern flow returns our moisture source into the area. Thunderstorm activity will be scattered in nature. Cloud cover will move in Sunday increasing into Sunday night.
