A new airmass has arrived. Much drier air has been filtering into the state since yesterday and will set us up for a more comfortable Friday and the weekend.
Dew point temperatures before the Thursday cold front were well into the oppressive 70s. The dew point temperature today, for example, will remain in the comfortable 50s.

While we are expecting much lower humidity, the air temperature will remain on the warm side with highs back to the more seasonable lower to middle 80s.
