I know, I know, it's been a while, but figured I'd put together a forecast for this weekend.
Our current setup is actually what we want right now (no rain!), and it should remain that way through this weekend thanks to our current blocking pattern called a Rex Block. A Rex Block in simple terms is an area of high pressure to the north of an area of low pressure, which prevents the area of low pressure from moving north. A good example is shown below:
