Chance For Rain Coming To An End

From Meteorologist Brandon Rector...

We started off a little on the mild side this morning with temperatures in the low to mid 40s. Another batch of showers is moving northeastward through the area. Showers and even a few thunderstorms will be off and on today, so keep the umbrella close by. Highs should only reach the low to mid 50s.

The chance for rain continues tonight and tomorrow morning. A few upper level disturbances are expected to move across the region in advance of an upper level low that is near Baja California. This low will end up becoming an open wave and ride the jetstream into the state. All of the rain activity should be over by the lunchtime to early afternoon hours on Saturday. A cold front looks to move through tomorrow and begin the clearing out process. Highs tomorrow should manage to make it into the upper 50s to low 60s.

A high pressure ridge will likely begin building into the area Sunday and into early next week. This will crank our temperatures up to well above average for this time of year by Tuesday. It looks as though we will also be dry during this period as well.

Have a fantastic Friday!
