Scattered thunderstorms today ahead of some nicer weather

BURLINGTON, Vt. (WCAX) -Happy Thursday! We saw a few showers and thunderstorms overnight, and we’ll hang onto the chance for more showers and thunderstorms through the day ahead.

High temperatures for Thursday head back into the mid and upper 70s. Most showers should wrap up through the first part of the night ahead as lows dip into the 50s.
