Much needed rain on the horizon with cooler days

As high pressure continues today plan on some hazy sunshine and warmer conditions. Then, a cold front from Canada sweeps through tonight bringing scattered rain showers tomorrow morning and cooler air for the weekend. A few pop thunderstorms could develop in the afternoon. Sunday remains dry and cool. Then, a closed-off area of low pressure in the mid-levels of the Jetstream dives in through the region. It’ll pull in some moisture from the south leading to much-needed rain for the central and eastern U.P. on Monday through Tuesday. Rainfall amounts will range from 1.5-2.5″.
