The low pressure off the Canadian Maritimes which cause the wind and cold the last few days will be moving further offshore as high pressure builds closer to our area from the west. Today we will have more sunshine than yesterday after early morning cloudiness, temperatures will be a few degrees higher and with less wind it will feel more comfortable than yesterday.

Mainly dry weather the rest of this week, temperatures will rise to near normal on Monday and above normal Tuesday through Friday as high pressure moves offshore and a southwesterly flow of warmer air develops.

At this point next weekend should still be dry but with cooler temperatures.
