High pressure will give us another nice day today with plenty of sunshine and seasonably mild tempertures.

As the high moves off the coast we should see an increase in the clouds on Friday, and with the clouds and onshore wind high temperatures will be a little lower than today.

A low pressure developing off the southeast coast will move slowly northward and will likely give us windswept rain possibly heavy at times over the weekend. Temperatures will be quite chilly with highs both days only in the 60s,

Except for a chance of a shower early Monday dry conditions should prevail through Wednesday with temperatures a little below normal.
