As the system moves through, cooler air will follow, keeping temperatures in the 60s. Northeast winds may gust between 30 and 40 mph, contributing to a chilly and raw feel. Rain chances are expected to gradually diminish from west to east Friday evening as drier air moves in.

Dry weather is anticipated to continue into the early part of next week, accompanied by a gradual warming trend.

Off & on storms overnight and through Friday afternoon. Sunny and cool weekend.
