through. behind it, a cold front. all you have to do is look at the transition in our state and national maps here. and see the difference in temperatures. 85 in baltimore. 44 in detroit. every place

move on through. the frontal boundary is going to drape to the south. high pressure in control now is going to bring in the nice, calm conditions this evening and into tomorrow. but as that high starts to ease off to the east, it's going to allow for that front to pull right back up and mix in with the moisture that is coming in from the west coast. that's going to make for a very, very raw, chilly and wet friday. and then, because those storms are so close by, we can't rule out scattered showers on saturday and sunday. although it does not look like a washout for your easter weekend. small craft advisory is in effect through tomorrow. next high tide, at 5:23. tonight, 49 degrees. we'll start to eliminate that possibility of scattered and stray showers. 75 degrees, first pitch at
