Rain showers (or thunderstorms south) gradually end northwest to southeast through the afternoon hours. Temperatures will remain cooler Friday through the weekend with highs in/near the 50s and morning lows in the upper 20s or 30s which may lead to some frost/freeze concerns for any susceptible plants.
