We can never know about the days to comeBut we think about them anywayAnd I wonder if I’m really with you nowOr just chasin’ after some finer day…… Anticipation, anticipation

West Nile Virus (WNV) is most commonly transmitted to humans by the bite of an infected mosquito. The mosquitoes that carry this virus are common throughout the state and are found in urban as well as more rural areas. While WNV can infect people of all ages, people over the age of 50 are at higher risk for severe infection.

After warm front late Thursday night into Friday brings a brief chance of showers, expect a warm and humid stretch Friday into Saturday. Scattered thunderstorms, a few possibly strong, may develop Saturday afternoon and evening with a passing cold front. Behind it, cooler and drier weather settles in Sunday through much of next week, with crisp mornings and comfortable afternoons. Highs return to the low/mid-70s with lows dipping into the 40s and 50s early next week, before moderating slightly again by midweek.
