Weather situation

A low pressure system over the southern inland is weakening while an associated trough continues to move across the state's south and west, bringing wet and unstable conditions. The trough will continue to cross northeastern areas on Wednesday before heading offshore, and this will be followed by a high pressure system moving into the state's west on Thursday. The high is then forecast to weaken to a ridge while maintaining generally dry and settled conditions for much of the state through the second half of the week.
