FORECAST DISCUSSION
Much cooler and drier air rushed into the area today on strong northwest winds.  This is the coolest blast of Canadian air that we've seen around here since back in May.  Temps tonight will dip into the upper 40s for the first time this season.  Expect another cool and dry day for Saturday.  Winds will be a little gusty, but not as strong as they were today.  
 
Temps begin to warm up a bit by Sunday and Monday.  By Monday night a potent system will bring a round of thunderstorms through the QCA.  Those should clear the area in time to leave us a dry Tuesday and Wednesday.
