The cold front that gave us the showers last evening is moving offshore while a deep low pressure is located over the Great Lakes. Today skies will become partly sunny and it will be cool with highs only in the 50s. Some breezy conditions in the afternoon and evening.

Tonight skies will be clear and with mainly calm winds will cause temperatures to fall into the 30s, a frost advisory is in effect for our area.

Still cool Wednesday and Thursday as the deep low moves slowly northeast, skies will be mostly sunny both days with a good chance of frost again both nights.

High pressure building into the area will give us mostly sunny skies on Friday with slowly moderating temperatures.

The weekend looks to be quite pleasant with sunny skies each day along with mild temperatures.

Monday will be a bit unsettled as the European computer model has a coastal storm moving up the coast which would give us rain but the American model (GFS) has the low well offshore with continued dry conditions here with continued mild temperatures.
