The recent cool pattern continues through the weekend with rain today, but the Lakes Region is not done with summer like temperatures yet. 

The National Weather Service says a front will move through today bringing with it a chance of showers and thunderstorms through the afternoon and evening. The frontal passage will give way to a dry weekend with temperatures staying in the 80s. 

Forecasters predict next week for things to warm-up again with highs possibly back into the 90s by Wednesday with no rain in the forecast for that period.
