High pressure off the Southeast coast continues to bring fair weather to the region and warm southerly breezes. Temperatures will reach into upper 70s this afternoon under a partly cloudy sky.

Clouds will increase tonight into Friday, as low pressure in the South drifts northeastward, bringing a chance for isolated showers.

The weekend will be warm, with a mix of clouds and sunshine. An approaching cold front will bring an increasing threat of showers and a few storms late Saturday into Sunday, as low pressure tracks through the Upper Midwest.

Chilly air will follow early next week, with lingering showers on Monday.
