It is cloudy over the area this morning with some drizzle or light rain falling, temperatures are mild ranging from the low 50s in Clifton to around 50 inland, winds are from the north around 10 mph.

The low pressure that gave us the heavy rain and wind yesterday is slowly moving up the coast and weakening, we can expect cloudy skies to persist today with periods of light rain or drizzle mainly this morning, temperatures will be slightly milder than yesterday.

We may see some breaks in the clouds on Thursday but it will remain mostly cloudy, temperatures will be milder.

High pressure will give us plenty of sunshine and warm temperatures Friday and Saturday with highs approaching the 80 degree mark both days.

Sunday now is expected to be cooler as a backdoor cold front will be moving to our south, daytime highs will only be in the 60s.

The front will pass to our north as a warm front on Monday followed by a cold front Monday night into Tuesday that may give our area some showers and thunderstorms.
