FORECAST DISCUSSION:
Good Wednesday Evening,
After a nearly seasonal start to the day, we had a quick warm-up that pushed our temps up into the lower 80s this afternoon. Tonight, expect partly cloudy skies, giving way to mostly clear conditions, as a light north breeze forms, and lows in the middle 50s.
Thursday should be a slightly warmer afternoon, mainly due to plenty of sunshine, dry air, and a slightly warmer start to the day, most of us should climb into the middle 80s during the afternoon. Friday, clouds will increase across the area, with warm and moist air ahead of our next weather system. By mid to late afternoon, some showers and storms will form, with a high still in the lower 80s.
Saturday rain chances will remain in the morning and taper off as we will see the first system exit to our east, and a second system approaching for overnight into Sunday. Highs on Saturday will be in the upper 70s. We will stay in the upper 70s on Sunday as a second weak front approaches.
Temps will fall back into the middle 70s on Monday with chances of storms late in the day. The frontal boundary to our south will start to lift back north, giving way to more rain and storm chances into Tuesday. Temps will warm on Tuesday with the warm front back into the lower 80s.
We will stay in a generally unstable pattern for Wednesday with pop-up thundershowers possible and highs remaining in the upper 70s.
