Some Clouds and Showers Around:

Good Morning from KRBC Forecaster John Nolan...

* Showers from overnight will dissipate across the area this morning but we'll keep some of the cloud cover. Expect Partly Cloudy conditions with some peaks of sunshine through the afternoon. A weak cold front is pushing South through the area and may be able to touch off some afternoon showers and isolated thunderstorms into the evening. We'll be mild with a high near 80 and lows in the mid 50's.

* Wednesday should be Mostly Cloudy with no significant cool down post-cold front. Expect highs near the 80 degree mark and overnight lows into the upper 50's.

* We're watching the low pressure area just off the coast of Southern California to begin to work its way in our direction by Thursday and Thursday night. Our best chance for rain, and possibly some strong thunderstorms, is looking to be Thursday night into Friday morning. It looks like we'll up our rain chance Thursday night to 40%.

* Looking ahead to the weekend: Temperatures are looking to continue the trend of lower 80's, which is slightly above average for this time of year. Maybe a slight chance for some precipitation Saturday and Sunday, but it's still a bit too far out to say with certainty.
