DAYS 1-5 (DECEMBER 7-11)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A north-to-south high pressure elongation, axis just to our west today, will drift eastward across the region by tonight and then off to the east Friday into the weekend. A disturbance in a northwesterly flow aloft between 2 stronger centers of the high will drive lots of high level cloudiness across our sky today to limit the sun at times, and we’ll have a very chilly day too. A milder trend begins Friday and continues as we head into and through the weekend. Fair weather continues Friday through Saturday, but we’ll see more in the way of cloudiness Saturday as a trough approaches from the west. This trough is set to swing across our region Sunday and early Monday. Associated with it will be a strong frontal boundary. The parent low of this front will pass to our northwest late Sunday through early Monday. Ahead of the front we can expect an increasing southerly air flow and a tightening pressure gradient means we’ll see a decent wind event. A few showers can come through the region Sunday afternoon, but the main band of rain with the frontal boundary will come through here Sunday night, maybe slowed slightly by an additional wave of low pressure on the front, but once main low pressure is north of our region, the front will swing through more quickly and offshore by early Monday, causing a wind shift to west, but still strong wind potential for a good part of the day Monday, even as we quickly return to dry weather with a chill-down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
