Feeling a lot like spring over the next several days….If you’ve been waiting for a significant warm up, then get ready! We’re tracking highs in the 70s this week, all courtesy of high pressure offshore. Southerly breezes will boost our highs into the lower 60s on Monday. We’ll see mostly sunny skies. A few high clouds will build in by late afternoon into the evening, but overall, we’re expecting a dry day. The clouds may stick around into early Tuesday morning. Otherwise, expect mostly sunny skies with highs in the low and mid 70s. High will soar into the mid and upper 70s on Wednesday and Thursday. Then, by next weekend, a few showers return to the forecast. Highs will cool back into the 60s.
