The frontal system that gave us the light rain and drizzle yesterday has moved further south permitting drier air to filter into our area from the north. Today will be cloudy and cool again with only a low chance of a morning shower.
Continued mostly cloudy but we should stay dry Monday through the day on Tuesday as high pressure to our north dominates the weather. Temperatures will remain below normal due to the clouds and an onshore wind.
A warm front should move to our north Tuesday night giving us a chance of showers followed by warmer air on Wednesday. There will be another chance of afternoon and evening showers and thunderstorms.
Hot and humid on Thursday and a cold front should come through at night possibly accompanied by some strong thunderstorms.
Mainly day and warm weather is expected Friday through next weekend as high pressure builds into the area.
Looking further ahead it appears that it will be hot early next week.
