Rain is falling over most of the area early on this Monday morning and temperatures are quite cool with readings ranging from the low 50s in Clifton to the upper 40s further inland, winds are from the north-northeast averaging around 10 mph.

A warm front to our south will slowly approach our area today with periods of rain continuing, temperatures will not be as chilly with highs near 70.

The warm front will pass to our north tomorrow morning and temperatures tonight will remain steady and even rise a bit overnight.  Tomorrow will be warmer and more humid and with a cold front approaching from the west will likely cause showers and thunderstorms.
