Good morning!

Skies are mainly cloudy early on this Monday morning and temperatures range from the upper 30s in Clifton down to the low 30s further inland, winds are light from the northwest.

The storm that gave us the rain yesterday is moving off the coast while weak high pressure builds into the area.  We will see some sunshine but it will still be mostly cloudy and breezy with temperatures a little above normal.

A cold front will cross the area early tomorrow morning, we should see more sunshine but it will be breezy and colder.

After a chilly Wednesday morning temperatures during the day will not be as cold as Tuesday.

Mild and dry most of Thursday but rain from a rather strong low pressure system will move into the area Thursday night and continue heavy at times into Friday.

At this point the weekend looks to be dry with temperatures slightly above normal.
