NEXT big change
Friday provides a break for most of us with partly sunny skies and highs near 80. Unfortunately, the front stalls just offshore rather than completely leaving the picture. Waves of low pressure riding along it could bring another period of rain Friday night into Saturday, especially along and east of I-95. Another round of showers is possible Sunday before high pressure finally brings quieter weather early next week.
Here's your 7-day forecast:
Thursday: NEXT Weather Alert. High 84
