Chief Meteorologist Patrick Rockey’s First Warning Forecast
The showers and thunderstorms we’ve been dealing with the past few days are moving out and much cooler weather is moving in. As a matter of fact, many of us will wake up to temperatures in the 40s the next few mornings!
Tuesday will be a cool and mainly cloudy day. We may start with some patchy fog and we could see a stray shower or two, mainly through the first part of the day. Expect high temperatures below normal in the mid-to-upper 60s.
Wednesday brings another chilly start with morning lows even a few degrees cooler. But we should enjoy a lot more sunshine on Wednesday. That will help warm us up back into the low-to-mid 70s.
And the warming trend will continue through the rest of the work week and into the weekend.
A broad area of high-pressure should keep us generally dry for a few days. But once that high shifts offshore, we expect temperatures to warm up and our rain chances to go up. Even so, we aren’t expecting any day to be a complete washout. As a cold front moves in and become stationary Friday and through the weekend, we are forecasting a 20% chance for rain each day.
