A low pressure system is moving through the area this morning giving us some light rain. Rainfall totals should be less than 1/10th of an inch. High pressure will then build into the area with skies becoming mostly sunny. High temperatures will be similar to yesterday rising to the low 50s.
Sunday will be a cool day and mainly dry but a weak cold front may touch off a rain and or snow shower in the afternoon mainly to our north and west.
High pressure will slowly move off the coast on Monday giving us another mostly sunny day with near normal temperatures.
Another frontal system will give us showers Tuesday and Wednesday along with milder temperatures.
At this point most models have the frontal system moving offshore on Thanksgiving so much of the day will be dry and cooler.
Canadian high pressure will then move into the area on Friday and be with us for the holiday weekend giving us much colder weather and we should stay dry.
