Tuesday Night Update

From Chief Meteorologist Brandon Rector...

It was cold again this morning with temperatures in the upper 20s to low 30s across the area. A mostly sunny sky and breezy south-southwest winds helped to warm us up into the low 60s for highs. This is a little above average for this time of year.

Temperatures should remain above freezing tonight with lows in the mid to upper 30s. Winds from the south-southwest are part of the reason why we should be warmer tonight.

A cold front is expected to arrive around the midday to early afternoon hours on Wednesday. Highs look to be in the low 60s. If the front arrives earlier, then we should be in the mid to upper 50s. If it arrives later, we could see highs in the mid 60s. No rain is expected with the front.

The coldest temperatures of the next seven days will be on Thursday and Friday. Mostly sunny conditions are likely with highs in the low 50s and lows in the mid 20s to low 30s.

A warming trend should take place this weekend with an increase in cloud cover. Highs look to be in the upper 50s on Saturday and the mid 60s on Sunday.

With moisture increasing this weekend and early next week as well as an upper level low and disturbances expected to be in the region, there is a chance for rain on Monday and Tuesday. That chance is only slight to 20% right now, but could increase or decrease depending on the exact track of the system. We'll continue to keep you updated on this precipitation possibility through the week.

Have a wonderful Wednesday!
