Good morning!

Skies are mostly cloudy early on this Monday morning and temperatures range from the low 50s in Clifton down to the mid 40s further inland, winds are light northerly.

We received more rain than I forecasted yesterday as 1.77″ fell.

The low pressure that gave us the rain yesterday is moving offshore as a weak high pressure builds in from the west. We should have partly sunny skies with only a slight chance of a shower but most if not all of the area will remain dry.

Tuesday will be a warm day, but a cold front crossing the area will cause some shower and thunderstorm activity in the late afternoon into the early part of tomorrow evening.

Cooler but dry on Wednesday.

Another frontal system will likely give us rain from late Thursday through Friday night. Temperatures will be cool on Thursday but warmer on Friday as a warm front pushes to our north, followed by a cold front late Friday.

At this point Saturday looks to be dry but another low pressure system will give us a chance of rain on Mother’s Day.

TODAY – MAY 6 – Partly sunny, high near 70.
