The northeast winds that have been bringing us all this cold, damp Atlantic air are expected to shift to the north today, and the switch will begin to dry us out, finally.
Look for skies to begin to clear by mid-day, with sunshine returning in the afternoon and clear skies by sunset, forecasters say. Friday and Saturday, high-pressure will dominate, and we should be able to recharge our solar batteries for a few days before the next round of precipitation.
