Good morning everyone!

After a cool start today will be milder with less clouds and wind, high temperatures will be around 5 to 10 degrees higher than yesterday.

Dry and quite mild Wednesday through Friday as high pressure in the southeast states gives us a warm southwesterly flow of air. High temperature all three days should be in the 70s which is 10-15 degrees above normal.

Cooler on the weekend and there is a chance of showers on Saturday as a weak disturbance moves through our area followed by high pressure building into our area on Sunday.
