A low pressure area off the coast will give us cloudy skies this morning with a chance of light rain or drizzle, some areas well inland may have some snow mixed in with the rain. As the storm moves further offshore we should see some clearing by this afternoon but it will be chilly as highs will only top out in the 40s and with a northwest breeze it will feel even colder.
Tonight widespread frost and freeze is expected into early Thursday morning as winds diminish and we will have clear skies. A freeze watch is in effect. A little milder during Thursday afternoon with plenty of sunshine as high pressure builds into our area.
Dry weather is expected Friday through the weekend with a gradual warmup in temperatures.
Still mild early next week with the next chance of rain will be around Tuesday.
