Tracking a dry and quiet start to the week
TODAY: Monday brings some much needed quiet and dry weather. We'll have mostly cloudy skies this morning, giving way to sunshine by the afternoon. Overall, we'll call it partly cloudy and mild, with a high temperature kept in the upper 60s to near 70 amid a 5-10 mph westerly breeze. Winds may gust to 20 mph.
TONIGHT: Skies remain mostly clear tonight, but high clouds work into the region by sunrise. Temperatures fall into the low 50s to upper 40s.
EXTENDED: Through the day, winds will slowly turn more southerly on Tuesday. This and abundant sunshine should help to push temperatures into the mid-70s, if not near 80 for some. This warmth continues into Wednesday; where, by the evening, we'll have a chance for showers and thunderstorms. This will kick off a more unsettled pattern of showers and thunderstorms through Thursday and Friday, before drier conditions look more likely over the weekend. Still, it's unclear just how far an approaching high pressure system can push gulf moisture on Saturday and Sunday. We'll keep a slight rain chance for now, but we look mostly dry. Over the next week, up to another inch of rain may fall locally.
