WEATHER UPDATE
A FAST MOVING COLD FRONT WILL MOVE ACROSS THE AREA TODAY BRINGING CHANCES FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS MAINLY ACROSS EASTERN PORTIONS OF THE AREA. TEMPERATURES SHOULD WARM INTO THE LOWER AND MIDDLE 70S AHEAD OF THE FRONTAL PASSAGE.
HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD BACK INTO THE AREA BY THE END OF THE WEEK WITH A BRIEF COOL DOWN EXPECTED. THE SURFACE HIGH WILL MOVE EAST OVER THE WEEKEND AS UPPER LEVEL RIDGING BUILDS BACK OVER THE REGION. THIS WILL KEEP DRY CONDITIONS IN PLACE AND ALLOW TEMPERATURES TO WARM BACK TO SEASONAL AVERAGES THROUGH THE WEEKEND. HIGHS SHOULD REACH INTO THE LOWER 80S WITH LOWS MAINLY IN THE 60S.
UNSETTLED WEATHER WILL RETURN BY EARLY NEXT WEEK AS THE NEXT STORM SYSTEM APPROACHED FROM THE WEST. INCREASING CHANCES FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ALONG WITH CONTINUED MILD TEMPERATURES CAN BE EXPECTED THROUGH THE END OF THE EXTENDED PERIOD.
