Morning Update: A Windy Tuesday

Today:

Today will start up cloudy and calm but a cold front will quickly blow the clouds away and bring in strong winds. Winds will get well above 20 mph with gusts in the 30-40 mph range. Wind chill will be a minimal factor however, as highs will push just past 60. There is a very marginal chance for some light showers Tuesday morning in anticipation of the cold front passage. Winds will start to peak in the early afternoon and slowly start to calm around sunset. Be sure to hold on to your hat when out and about tomorrow!

Tomorrow (Wednesday):

Wednesday will remain cloudy for the entire day, the cold air associated with the cold front will sink into our region and we’ll see seasonal temperatures. The high will be 47 and the low 44. There is a chance for a passing light shower throughout the day. 

 

A Look Ahead:

A warm front pushes into the area Thursday, bringing potentially record breaking high temperatures. Highs are expected to break 80. This along with ample sunshine will make it feel like late may. Unfortunately this weather is not here to stay, as a cold front Thursday night will push temperatures back to normal and bring more wind Friday, with gusts in the 30s possible. The weekend and the beginning of next week will be dreary with lots of clouds and showers with highs in the 40’s and 50’s.
