Tonight: Clear skies will begin the evening with a slight increase in cloud cover as the night goes on, but overall conditions will be pleasant. Winds will be shifting to the southwest at 5-7 mph. The low will be 57 degrees. 

Tomorrow (Thursday): Expect more of the same clear sky conditions for most of the day on Thursday with increasing cloud cover in the afternoon. There will be a slight chance of rain showers in the late afternoon. Winds will be shifting to the west-northwest at 3-5 mph. The high will be 73 degrees. 

Tomorrow Night (Thursday Night): There’s a slight chance of rain in the evening although that chance increases once the sun sets. Overnight, showers are expected as another cold front moves through the region. There will be northwest winds at around 3-5 mph. The low will be 55 degrees. 

A Look Ahead: The cold front will move out of here by Friday morning and will spell the start to a beautiful weekend as high pressure builds into the region. It will feel like fall with high temps in the low to mid 60s over the weekend. Early next week another low pressure system looks to make its way across the region with storms possible.
