After daytime highs managed to climb up to the mid and upper 80s, it will remain warm and humid Thursday night. The overnight low in Midtown will fall down to near 70, while the suburbs will range between 65-70. As brief change is coming as we close out the work week, Friday. While it will remain warm, the humidity levels will start to drop thanks to a northwest wind flow. Friday is all about an air mass change. It's still going to remain warm with temperatures in the mid to upper 80s, but the air will be drier.

The air mass change is only temporary, because as early as Friday night the winds will once again come out of the southwest. It's all due to an approaching cold front that will be moving through the Great Lakes and the Ohio Valley. This cold front is expected to cross the tristate bringing the threat of showers and thunderstorms Saturday afternoon and evening. The showers should start to taper off by late Saturday night.

While there could be a few early clouds and a morning shower, Sunday looks to be the better of the two days over the weekend. Sunday afternoon, a down sloping northwest wind flow will dry out the atmosphere and provide a blend of sun and clouds to the region. The daytime highs both Saturday and Sunday will be in the middle 80s.

A warm up is on the way for the beginning of next week. High pressure will start to build in from the west Monday and sit directly on top of the region Tuesday. Sunshine, fair weather and highs in the upper 80s are expected for Monday and Tuesday.

Dear Melissa,
I enjoy watching you do the weather very much. You are very beautiful and a pleasure to watch. Usually I don't watch the weather very closely, but when you do the weather my interest peaks. You could tell me a monsoon was coming to this area and I wouldn't mind as long as I could see your beautiful smile.
Maybe you could write some more blogs. I would like to know if you think global warming is real. I think it is but the big corporations that pollute the atmosphere don't.
