This weekend will feel like summertime around the region with warm and fairly muggy conditions in place. For today, look for a good deal of sun with piedmont highs in the 88-91 degree range and mountain highs near 80. Sunday's highs will be comparable.

A few storms will fire around the region this afternoon as well as Sunday afternoon, but I expect them to be pretty widely separated in the piedmont. The best coverage of scattered showers and storms through the weekend will be in the mountains. 

A cold front will then drop into the region from the north Monday. That front will greatly enhance the chance of showers and storms Monday into Tuesday, and then we will return to typical scattered afternoon storm chances for the rest of next week.
