The storm that gave us the wind yesterday is moving further away off the Nova Scotia coast as high pressure builds from the Midwest. Winds will gradually diminish today and with plenty of sunshine temperatures will be a few degrees higher than yesterday.

Dry and milder Tuesday and Wednesday with plenty of sunshine both days as the high pressure builds closer to our area.

High pressure will then settle off the southeast coast and a west-southwest flow of possible record breaking warmth Thursday through Saturday. Skies will continue to be mostly clear.

A weak front may cause a shower mainly Sunday evening, temperatures with more clouds should be a little cooler.
