Meteorologist April Loveland's First Warning Forecast

We're just 15 days away from the First Day of Spring, but it will be feeling more like spring over the next few days.

Today will feature more clouds than sun, but it will be much milder than Friday with highs ranging from the upper 50s along the coast to the mid 60s inland. Conditions will stay mainly dry, but a few raindrops are not out of the question. Won't be a big deal though.

Very mild overnight with mostly cloudy skies and lows in the upper 50s as a warm front lifts northward. We could see some fog form over our coastal waters tonight.

Temperatures will soar well into the 70s on Sunday. Clouds will still be around, but the wind will pick up out of the southwest at 15-25 mph, with gusts up to 35 mph possible. Hang on to your hats and any loose items in your yard!

Overnight lows will continue to be mild in the low 60s, which means a very mild start to the work week.

Monday will be the warmest day of the week and the warmest day we've had since October. It will once again be windy with winds out of the southwest at 15-25 mph, and gusts 30-35 mph possible.

A cold front will approach late and cross the area on Tuesday. Showers will move in overnight Monday into Tuesday. Expect light showers on Tuesday with highs in the low 60s, falling into the 50s by the afternoon.

An area of low pressure will move along the front on Wednesday bringing another chance for showers. Temperatures will warm to the low and mid 50s.

A few showers will be possible on both Thursday and Friday. We'll see highs in the mid and upper 50s on Thursday and mid 60s on Friday.
