Our active weather pattern rolls on as a weak system moves out early today, making room for a stronger one on Thursday. That will bring the chance for severe thunderstorms into the region. All of this will lead us back into a very wintry pattern for the rest of the month into early March.<\/p>\n<p>Our early morning showers and thunderstorms will give way to afternoon sunshine as temps warm toward 50 in the north and low and mid\u00a050s in the south.<\/p>\n<p>The action starts on Thursday as winds begin to crank and temps surge. Gusts of 40mph will be possible during the day as thermometers hit the 60s. A 70 is possible if we get enough sunshine.

That could mean an increased risk of damage from trees.<\/p>\n<p>Colder air quickly filters in behind that front for Friday as skies clear.
