Tracking a warm and windy Tuesday

TONIGHT: Partly cloudy and warmer with lows in the lower 40s.

TOMORROW: Partly sunny and breezy with highs in the lower 70s.

EXTENDED: I'm tracking a front that will begin to lift back north as a warm front on Tuesday, pushing highs into the lower 70s as winds gust to 30 mph at times. Fire weather conditions will have to be monitored with low relative humidity and dry conditions due to ongoing drought. We'll remain mild into Wednesday with morning temperatures in the lower 50s and highs near 70. Another weak front moves through between Wednesday night and Thursday, clearing skies to drop us into the lower 40s on Thursday morning. Winds shift back south during the day, with highs approaching 70 yet again. A stronger disturbance will send a front through between Thursday and Friday, bringing a chance of rain and a few storms on Thursday night with lingering clouds on Friday. The weekend will be mild on Saturday with highs in the low to mid-60s and increasing clouds ahead of another front. Sunday will be chillier as skies clear out with morning lows in the upper 30s and highs struggling to top 50 degrees. Measurable rain chances are looking low for the next 7 days.
