This spring-like pattern is here to stay a while as high pressure digs in.

Today will be the warmest day in our forecast period as we warm up to the upper 70’s this afternoon, and we’ll have at least some crack 80º. Tonight a weak front arrives that will help us cool down to the mid 40’s, and keep us in the low 70’s tomorrow. Sunday we bring southerly winds back and warm up to the mid 70’s with overnight lows in the low 50’s.

Monday/Tuesday a system will move through that will bring a modest chance of showers. I don’t expect much from this one - definitely not the substantial rain we need. Temperatures Monday will be in the mid 70’s, and then we top out around 70º Tuesday. Wednesday we’ll be right back in the mid 70’s.

Thursday looks cooler as another push of cool air may nudge its way in, and I’m still watching a possible storm system scheduled next weekend. Still too far out, so it’s just a trend to monitor for now.
