DAYS 1-5 (MARCH 28 -APRIL 1)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hope you enjoyed yesterday. Although it started out with a gusty northwesterly breeze and ended up with a chilly sea breeze for some, by late March standards it was a nice day. Today won’t be quite so nice. It’s already overcast and approaching low pressure from the west will send a slug of rainfall into the region. There’s enough instability with the system that we may even get some thunderstorm activity with the rainfall this evening as an occluded frontal system moves across the region. Although we do need that rain to help alleviate recent dryness and also fire danger which has been spiking on our dry, breezy days. Speaking of dry and windy, that’s the type of weather we get Monday as our rain-producer moves away and pulls a chunk of cold air out of Canada. High pressure moves in with a less windy and milder Tuesday, but March may exit with a bit of a roar as strong cold front approaches from the west Wednesday with windy and showery weather by late-day or nighttime. In the medium range, we’ve been pondering the questions of what will happen when the front crosses the region around April 1. Well, it will bring colder air back to the region – that much we know. It will bring some wet weather to start the new month – that much we’re pretty sure of. Will it move slowly enough that enough moisture will be around for that rain to change to snow? It’s still several days away, so I’m not sure, but I’m leaning away from a “snow” threat there and maybe just some rain showers or snow flurries as the front moves off and cold air arrives. Still time to fine-tune this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
