Let's close out the week in style, shall we? Because if we get through today we're in store for a magical weekend. Here is the weather Skilling Central and Accuweather say is in store for us. The sunshine you're currently enjoying on your morning commute could give way to showers by late morning, thicker clouds and a thunderstorm by the afternoon, and highs in the upper 80s.

As we head into the evening, clouds are expected to thicken and the possibility for showers will increase, especially out south. Overnight lows will dip into the mid-60s. Come Saturday, however, another Canadian high front will drive the clouds and storms out of the way, signaling a mild weather weekend. Those of us riding the Four Star Bike and Chow Sunday will have perfect weather in store.
