Meteorologist Myles Henderson’s First Warning Forecast

Slow warm up to end the week… Highs will warm to the mid 40s today, almost 10 degrees warmer than yesterday but still below normal for this time of year. It will still be windy with N/NE winds at 10 to 20 mph. We will see sunshine today with just a few clouds in the mix. Expect clear skies tonight with overnight lows in the low 30s.

The slow warm up continues as we will climb to near 50 on Thursday and into the mid 50s on Friday. We will see a mix of clouds (partly to mostly cloudy) both days with a stray shower possible.

Our next substantial chance for rain will move in Friday night to Saturday morning. Rain chances will ramp up after sunset on Friday and will stick around until midday on Saturday. Highs will warm to near 60 on Saturday, the warmest day of the week. We will cool back into the 50s on Sunday with partly cloudy skies.
