We’re finally getting a prolonged stretch of calmer weather to start the new year after a couple weeks with big storms to end things. Temperatures during this week should be at or above normal in the low-40s. Looking ahead, a storm is possible next weekend, though as it stands the setup would favor pushing this storm out to sea well before it impacts the region.
Rest of today – mostly to partly sunny with high temperatures in the low-40s. Overnight lows in the mid-30s.
Tuesday – partly sunny with high temperatures around 40ºF. Overnight lows in the low-30s.
Wednesday – mostly sunny with high pressure building in. High temperatures in the low-40s. Overnight temperatures dropping into the low-30s.
Thursday – High temperatures in the low-40s again with mostly sunny skies. Overnight lows once again in the low-30s.
Looking ahead at this weekend, a coastal storm looks like it will be shunting out to sea south of the region, although this could change in the next couple days. This month, Climate Prediction Center is assessing higher than normal chances for above average temperatures, and modestly higher chances for above average precipitation.
