It’ll be a cloudy start to the week with possible thunderstorms later today. Rain chances continue Tuesday with a surface low in our vicinity. Once this low moves off, our weather calms Wednesday. High pressure builds in Thursday and should bring us mostly sunny skies. High temperatures start off slightly below normal in low-50s with clouds and rain, and will warm into normal ranges in the mid-50s later on.
Rest of today – energy from an upper level low will support development of a surface low around its base. Surface troughs from this low may touch off some isolated showers and thunderstorms later this afternoon with the aid of a cold pool aloft (increasing lapse rates and increasing instability). Best chances for this activity will be north of the city. High temperatures in the mid-50s with clouds and rain. Overnight lows in the low-40s.
Tuesday – this surface low will help move a backdoor cold front through, bringing cool, damp, northeasterly flow to the area. With this air mass, we’re only expecting high temperatures in the upper-40s. Rain chances continue with the low in our vicinity. Overnight lows in the upper-30s.
Wednesday – the low affecting our weather to open the week finally moves off. We’ll get a dry day with diminishing clouds and high temperatures around 50°F. Overnight lows around 40°F.
Thursday – high pressure builds and brings us a mostly sunny day. High temperatures rebound into the mid-50s in response. Overnight lows in the mid-40s.
