 Much of the west coast will be dry today, but a storm track to the north brings showers to the Pacific Northwest. A nicer day can be expected for Friday as more of the west dries out. In Syracuse, New York, a spotty morning shower gives way to a blend of sunshine and clouds with a high of 74. However, around Seattle, watch out for a shower in the area under mostly cloudy skies, high of 65. I'm AccuWeather.com meteorologist LaTroy Thornton.
