Skies are cloudy early on this Wednesday morning and temperatures are nearly 30 degrees warmer than this time yesterday ranging from the low 40s in the Clifton area to the mid 30s further inland, winds are gusty out of the southwest.

We should see some sunshine this morning as overnight rains have moved east of the area, temperatures will rise to near 50, winds will be gusty this morning, diminishing this afternoon.  Another warm front will cause clouds to increase this afternoon with another area of rain moving through tonight, temperatures will remain mild.

Thursday will be quite mild with high temperatures approaching the 60 degree mark although there is a chance of some light showers.

A cold front will cross the area late Thursday night and should come through dry.  Friday should be a cooler.

A polar high pressure area will move in from the Great Lakes bringing in colder air but no where near as frigid as the last few days, also a stationary front will be to our south, moisture from this system may produce some light snow from late Saturday morning into the evening.

A couple of disturbances may give us some rain early next week, temperatures will be near normal on Monday and rise to above normal values through the end of next week.
