After morning lows sub-freezing through most of the region, we&#8217;ll recover back to 40+, still quite below normal for the date, along with a breeze that will add some chill, though counteracted a bit by the early April sun. One thing that will be above normal today: fire danger. It is fire season in our region now, peaking during the time just before the  main tree leaf-out takes places, and especially high on dry, breezy days, when last year&#8217;s expired vegetation is vulnerable. Use caution with or avoid using outdoor flames or things that can cause sparks, if possible. After today&#8217;s nice weather today, we&#8217;ll see clouds increase tomorrow ahead of a warm front as high pressure moves offshore. It will stay dry during the day, but at night, a burst of moisture will move in. Enough cold air will be around that precipitation, falling as rain in the coastal plain, can be mixed with or even fall as a period of wet snow inland, especially higher elevation locations near and north of I-90. This exits Friday morning and clouds will thin out somewhat as some dry air battles the cloud deck. The result is that many of Friday&#8217;s daylight hours will be precipitation-free with even a bit of sunshine possible. The clouds thicken up ahead of a more organized low pressure area down the coast that will wheel its way north northeast, delivering a wet day on Saturday. This can linger into Sunday, especially in eastern areas, as a follow-up low center moves by the region. It may slide far enough east for later Sunday improvement, but that&#8217;s a wildcard at this point, and I&#8217;ll monitor trends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TODAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 44-51. Wind NW 5-15 MPH, higher gusts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TONIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows 25-32. Wind light variable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>THURSDAY: Sun followed by clouds. Highs 51-58, coolest coast. Wind SE up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>THURSDAY NIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Chance of rain except mix and wet snow possible interior sections mainly near and north of I-90. Lows 40-47. Wind SE up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>FRIDAY: Mostly cloudy. Highs 50-57, coolest coast. Wind SE to E up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>FRIDAY NIGHT \/ SATURDAY \/ SATURDAY NIGHT: Cloudy. Periods of rain. Areas of fog. Temperatures decline to 43-50 then remain steady. Wind E 10-20 MPH, higher gusts especially coastal areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>SUNDAY: Cloudy with periods of rain and areas of fog \/ drizzle morning. Breaking clouds afternoon. Highs 45-52. Wind variable to N 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>DAYS 6-10 (APRIL 14-18)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A brief shot of milder air early next week before a cold front brings a cool shot of air by mid to late week. This looks like an overall drier weather period with just a brief rain shower possible with the passing cold front April 15 and perhaps another minor system at the end of the period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>DAYS 11-15 (APRIL 19-23)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hints of split flow pattern with weak systems both north and south of our region, but have to watch systems to the south for enough northward movement for unsettled weather here.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DAYS 1-5 (APRIL 9-13) It&#8217;s a cold morning, but a bright day awaits.
