The low pressure that gave us the rain and record chilly temperatures will be moving to our northeast as high pressure builds from the west. Skies should remain mostly cloudy but we should see some breaks of sunshine by this afternoon. High temperatures will be around 20 degrees higher than this weekend but still a little below normal for this time of year.

Tuesday still looks to be the nicest day of this week with plenty of sunshine and temperatures rising to near normal.

A slow moving trough of low pressure will be influencing our weather from late Wednesday night through Saturday with the most likelihood of heavier showers Thursday night into Friday. However unlike this past weekend temperatures will be at or slightly above normal with an increase in humidity.

Looks like a stretch of very warm to hot weather next week.

Another unseasonably cool day today with rain which may become heavy at times during the afternoon and evening as another low pressure moves up the coast. Additional rainfall amounts of an inch can be expected. High temperatures will only reach around 50 but we should have a little less wind than yesterday.

We should have some slow clearing on Memorial Day, temperatures will not be as cool with highs near 70 which is still below normal.

Tuesday still looks to be the nicest day of this week with sunny skies and warmer temperatures.

A slow moving frontal system will give our area unsettled weather from late Wednesday through Friday with the best chance of rain Thursday night into Friday. Temperatures however will be warmer with an increase in humidity.
