Sunny, less humid Friday with highs in the 80s

A mostly sunny and less humid Friday with warm temperatures in the 80s.

WASHINGTON - A welcome finale to a steamy and stormy workweek!

FOX 5's Sue Palka says the tropical humidity has left most of the area although it may linger just a bit longer at the coast through the morning.

Abundant sunshine and much lower humidity will make it easier to be outside. It will still be a warm day as we top out in the mid to upper 80s this afternoon.

The weekend starts out dry and a cooler trend of temperatures in the 70s begins that will last through the first half of next week. That cooler trend will have us watching for daily showers next week and possibly as soon as Sunday.
