Tuesday Morning Update

From Meteorologist Brandon Rector...

I hope you didn't pack up the jackets and coats yet because you'll need them the next couple of days. A cold front moved through the area this morning bringing some of the coldest air we have had in a while. Highs today should only reach the mid to upper 60s. That's about twenty-five to thirty degrees cooler than yesterday.

Tonight, it will be a bit chilly with lows bottoming out in the low to mid 40s.

Wednesday and most of Thursday look to be dry with partly cloudy skies and highs ranging from the upper 60s to mid 70s.

An upper level low sets up just to our west by late this week. It will help pull in moisture from the Pacific Ocean. A high pressure system to our east will bring moisture in from the Gulf of Mexico. With moisture in place, showers and thunderstorms will be possible due to a few upper level disturbances and eventually the low itself beginning Thursday night and lasting into Sunday. Right now, our chance for rain ranges from 20% to 40% during that time period. We'll continue to keep our eye on this rain potential and let you know if the chances increase or decrease.

Have a terrific Tuesday!
