(WSIL) -- The unsettled weather pattern will be with us through the weekend. Showers and thunderstorms will be possible at any time but we expect periods of dry skies. Temperatures will be warm for the season and should allow all of us a little outdoor time.

Severe weather is not expected but an isolated storm or two could produce some hail or strong gusty winds.

A little bit of a cool down is in the forecast for early next week along with several dry days.

I will have the latest forecast updates on News 3 this evening.
