Here is a look at the weather features that will affect the region
over the next several days.

High pressure will build south of the area Friday while low 
pressure moves to the northeast, causing gusty winds. A front will

much through early next week. This will lead to unsettled weather 
as waves of low pressure move along the boundary.
