FORECAST DISCUSSION:
Good Friday Evening,
It has been a wet day today, with cold rain showers around, temps still running about 8 degrees below normal for much of the day in the lower 40s. The good news is this evening, temps will barely budge, the bad news, we will have patchy light showers/drizzle.
We will start Saturday drier, with clouds, and temps in the lower 40s, and will pick up winds, and temps will get back to near normal in the upper 40s to near 50. Sunday should see a bit of sunshine returning, with highs in the lower 50s. Monday will warm up, but rain returns later with a cold front, highs will be in the upper 50s.
That front will bring more rain for Monday night, and some clearing for Tuesday with cooler readings back in the lower 40s. Expect partly sunny, dry conditions, for Wednesday with highs again in the lower to middle 40s. Expect more rain showers to be in the forecast for Thanksgiving Day Thursday with highs in the lower 40s. We will have a mix of rain showers and wet snow showers next Friday with highs in the upper 30s, brrrr!
