What We’re Tracking
Clouds build in Thursday
Widespread rain ahead
Sunny by Saturday
For tonight, a light east wind will continue at 5-10mph. Cloud cover increases even more overnight as temperatures dip into the middle 40s.
Rain becomes likely by early Thursday morning, and we may even see showers lingering into Friday, as well. Along with the showers, a few thunderstorms are also possible, especially Thursday afternoon and evening. We’re likely to see some beneficial rain with this system, too, with a widespread 0.25″-0.50″ of rain expected with locally higher amounts possible in the eastern half of the area. Highs get a bit cooler with the rain chances, though. We’re looking at middle 50s for the last half of the week, which is quite a bit closer to the average for this time of the year. That cooler weather will likely carry over into the following weekend, as well.
However, the weekend looks sunny and temperatures rebound a bit on Sunday back into the lower 60s. We continue to rebound temperatures-wise as we kick off next week. With quite a bit of sunshine, we’ll eventually make it into the upper 60s and lowers 70s for the first half of the week before another system tries to move through.
