Early this morning is chilly (30s inland, 40s coast) as the high building in dropped the winds and allowed for radiational cooling to occur. Today, we see a decent temperature recovery into the 60s (mostly lower to middle 60s for high temps). Tonight&#8217;s temps don&#8217;t drop as much with a developing southwesterly breeze as the high slides offshore. This allows Sunday to warm further into the 60s (mostly middle to upper 60s for high temps) but with a more noticeable breeze than today. You&#8217;ll see patches of high clouds today trying to work in from the northwest but they will be basically obliterated by dry air associated with a high pressure ridge aloft. As this ridge slides to the east on Sunday, the intrusion of these clouds patches will become more successful, and we&#8217;ll start to lose the sun before it sets. The clouds thicken up in earnest Sunday night ahead of an approaching trough and frontal system. As previously mentioned, a wave of low pressure is going to form on this front and its position will determine the details of Monday&#8217;s unsettled weather &#8211; a rain event &#8211; but for how long? I&#8217;m looking for an solid band of rain showers and maybe an embedded thunderstorm too. This should cross the region in the morning and midday hours. Strongest indications are that the low pressure wave is going to track just north of the WHW forecast area. This would allow a dry slot to work in behind that initial band of rain showers, with breaking clouds and just the chance of a passing rain shower for the remainder of the afternoon on Monday. This is my strong leaning for the evolution of it, but I&#8217;ll watch it for any last-minute surprises. Despite bring a a broad low pressure trough, we will have a small ridge of high pressure at the surface work into our region Tuesday with a fair weather interlude, before the next low pressure and frontal system bring a return to showery weather for part of Wednesday. Leaning toward the first half of the day for the most likely wet weather to occur, and clearing it out late.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TODAY: Mostly sunny to partly cloudy. Highs 61-68.
