High pressure brings sunshine, cool temps, warmer weekend

It’s a cold start Friday with most temperatures in the 20s and 30s. Those readings are pretty close to normal, something that’s been elusive this fall. We’ll see afternoon highs in the 40s pretty much statewide, again right near normal for the date.
