UPDATED 10:20AM THUR - Our next cold front starts to push through giving us scattered showers and storms. Depending on how much sunshine we get, some storms could be severe with damaging winds, heavy rainfall.  The low-pressure system is also bringing us a shot of cold Canadian Air and windy conditions.  What you can expect on Friday is partly cloudy skies and temps in the mid to upper 60s.  Winds will be out of the West at 10-20 mph with gusts up to 35 mph.  This will definitely provide a chilly to the air.  Our holiday weekend looks amazing with mostly sunny skies and temperatures in the upper 60s and lower 70s.  Labor Day consists of dodging a few isolated showers/storms but overall expect partly sunny skies and temperatures in the lower 80s.
