Cloudy with Rain Possible

Good morning!

Most of our area is off to a dry but cloudy start to our day today, and it looks as if those conditions will continue for most of the day.  These stubborn clouds will be sticking with us, and there is a slight chance of rain throughout the day.  A short round of showers is about to move through our area.  However, most of the rain will not move in until later.  Rain chances will increase as we head into the afternoon and evening hours.  Showers are likely and a thunderstorm is possible overnight.

This morning’s lows were in the mid 50s, which is around 10° above average.  However, due to the cloud cover, temperatures will not rise all that dramatically today and our highs will be rather seasonable.  Our normal high temperature for this time of year is 69°.  As shown in the graphic below, highs today are expected just barely break the 70° mark.

Looking ahead, the showers we are expecting as we head into the evening and overnight hours will continue into Thursday.  Due to a low pressure system to our south, there is a chance of showers every day for the rest of this week.  It will not be a total washout since they will be rather scattered in nature, but we will not see a clear day until sometime next week.

Forecast:  Cloudy skies, a 30% chance of PM showers, highs near 70°, and winds out of the east at around 5-7 mph.

Thanks for reading, and have a great day!
