Meteorologist Myles Henderson’s First Warning Forecast

Windy and not as warm…. A weak cold front will move through the area today, bringing in extra clouds and cooler temperatures. Rain chances will be limited but an isolated shower is possible. We will see a mix of partly to mostly cloudy skies today. Highs will only reach to the low 70s as cooler air moves in behind the front. It will be windy again today as winds shift from the SW this morning to NE this afternoon.

Expect mostly cloudy skies on Saturday as a string of fronts lingers to our south with an isolated shower possible. It will be cooler tomorrow, on the north side of the fronts, with highs only in the low to mid 60s. Clouds stick around and rain chances will gradually increase for Sunday. Our best chance for rain will be Sunday night and into Monday. Temperatures will warm back into the low 70s for Sunday and the first half of next week.

Today: Partly to Mostly Cloudy, Isolated Showers(20%), Windy. Highs in the low 70s. Winds: SW/NE 10-20

Tonight: Partly Cloudy, Cooler. Lows in the upper 40s. Winds: NE 5-10
