AN UPPER RIDGE WILL AMPLIFY FROM THE SOUTHERN PLAINS INTO THE
UPPER MIDWEST THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK. MEANWHILE, A TROUGH
WILL DIG ALONG THE EAST COAST SENDING A BACK DOOR COLD FRONT
THROUGH THE AREA THIS EVENING AND OVERNIGHT. THIS WILL BRING A
DRIER AND SLIGHTLY COOLER AIRMASS INTO THE AREA FOR THE END OF THE
WEEK INTO THE WEEKEND. AN ISOLATED SHOWER OR STORM IS POSSIBLE
THIS EVENING ACROSS INTERIOR AREAS AS THE FRONT MOVES IN, HOWEVER
MOST AREAS WILL REMAIN DRY. A DRY NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT PREVAILS
THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK. BY EARLY NEXT WEEK, THE RIDGE WEAKENS
AS A SHORTWAVE DIGS ACROSS THE PLAINS STATES. INCREASING MOISTURE
AND A WEAKENING UPPER RIDGE WILL BRING RAIN CHANCES BACK INTO THE
AREA FOR THE START OF NEXT WEEK.
HIGHS WILL GENERALLY BE IN THE MID TO UPPER 80S AND LOWS IN THE
LOWER TO MIDDLE 60S LATE WEEK INTO THE WEEKEND. FRIDAY NIGHT INTO
SATURDAY MORNING WILL LIKELY BE THE COOLEST NIGHT AS LOWS OVER
THE INTERIOR MAY DIP INTO THE UPPER 50S. /13
