Good morning everyone!

RECORD HIGH: 64 – 2009 RECORD LOW: 0 – 1979

High pressure building from the mid-west will give us a mostly sunny day with diminishing winds as the high moves closer to our area. Although temperatures will be cooler today it will still be 5-10 degrees above normal.

Sunday will be a partly sunny day with continued seasonably mild temperatures but a low pressure will be approaching from the southeast states. Most of the precipitation should remain to southeast but there is a 50% chance of rain with the rain more likely along coastal areas and less inland.

Dry and mild Monday through Wednesday with highs in the 50s.

Unseasonably mild Thursday into Friday with highs both days in the 60s. A strong frontal system approaching our area will give us a chance of showers on Thursday with showers more likely on Friday.
