Today:

 As a surface high pressure sits over the region we can expect mostly sunny skies and light winds coming from the south Monday. The high will be 50 and no precipitation is expected. A rather pleasant day to walk to class this time of year.

 

Tonight: 

The high pressure will move out overnight as a weak cold front pushes in from the Ohio valley. After midnight chances of rain increase, light rain can be expected across the area by Tuesday morning. Rain totals Monday night will less than a tenth of an inch. No winter precipitation is expected with this front. The low will hover around 38 with calm winds.

 

Tomorrow (Tuesday): 

Showers on and off all day Tuesday, though not expected to be heavy. Total rainfall totals Tuesday around a quarter of an inch with rain stopping Tuesday night. The high will be 52 and the low will be 49. Winds will be light and variable.

 

A Look Ahead:

The rest of the week will stay dreary as the rain will not go away until the weekend as another cold front slowly works its way through the area towards the end of the week. The weekend is expected to be dry and sunny.
