We will be in the warm sector today with no more than stray showers and thunderstorms this afternoon and evening. A cold front heads our way Saturday with a wave of low pressure in front of it. This will bring a better chance for showers and depending and how many breaks of sun we might get, there could be a couple of thunderstorms with a low, but not zero, possibility of strong or severe storms. Then, an upper level low(ULL) will close off in the Ohio Valley. This will bring us south to southwesterly flow of moist air in the mid and upper levels while the surface the flow turns more easterly. Because the ULL is closed off it won't be moving anywhere anytime soon. As a result, there is a prolonged possibility of scattered showers into much of next week. However, latest models have the ULL farther west, which means activity should be less frequent or widespread.   But the threat of some unsettled weather will be with us until that ULL opens up and lifts out.
