The "cooler" air will settle in Thursday, but even then highs stay above average. Highs will still rise into the mid 70s. 

A second cold front is expected by Friday. This will bring a chance for isolated showers and storms. However, at this point, the chances are low. It will however, usher in a bigger cool down. By the weekend highs are back into the 60s.
