Warming trend, windy Thursday

TONIGHT: Skies will remain mostly clear with low temperatures falling into the low 30s. Southwesterly winds will remain under 5 mph through midnight but will increase to near 10 mph by morning.

THURSDAY: The day will start off cool but increasing southwesterly winds will warm temperatures to near 60 by noon. It will be windy and dry and outdoor burning should be avoided due to 15-20 winds gusting as high as 30 mph in the afternoon and low humidity. Temperatures will warm into the mid 60s, feeling more like mid-April.

EXTENDED: We will stay in a mild weather pattern through early next week with highs in the 60s and nights in the 40s. The weekend looks warm and dry with high temperatures near 70 Saturday and lower 70s Sunday under partly cloudy skies. Southerly winds will stay under 10 mph this weekend. The next chance for rain looks possible by Monday. Areas west of US 63 at this time, look to have the better chance for spotty rain under 0.20″.
