This touch of mugginess may be enough to fuel some needed precipitation chances in the form of isolated thunderstorms. A few could clip our northwestern zone as early as this evening though meaningful precipitation is still not expected for most.

Yet another low level chance is possible Friday and into the weekend for scattered rain and some storms. If rain does come of these chances, it is expected to be scattered and light.
