Good morning everyone!
Light rain is falling in most of the area early on this Tuesday morning and temperatures range from the mid 50s in Clifton to the low 50s further inland, winds are from the east.
A warm front approaching our area from the south and west will cause rain this morning tapering off to showers this afternoon, the rain may be heavy at times, tempertures will rise into the low 70s and the humidity will also rise with dew points around 70 by tonight.
The warm front will push to our north tonight and there may be a break in the precipitation on Wednesday morning, however a cold front will be approaching the area and pass through at night, the front may be preceded by some strong to severe thunderstorms in the afternoon and evening. High temperatures will rise into the 80s and with dew points in the low 70s will make tomorrow feel rather uncomfortable.
Cooler and drier air will move into the area on Thursday, there may be a shower at night as a weak disturbance moves along the front to our south.
Friday will be seasonable mild and dry as high pressure builds into the area.
It still looks like the weekend with be pleasant and dry with seasonably mild temperatures.
