Patrick Rockey’s Live VIPIR Forecast

More blue skies, more sunshine, but it is a little warmer today and will be a few degrees warmer on Wednesday.

We will wake up to temperatures in the upper 50s and lower 60s with mainly clear skies and then expect high temperatures in the afternoon in the low-to-mid 80s.

Thursday brings a little change to our sunny pattern. A few more clouds will roll in off of the Atlantic, bringing us a slight chance for an afternoon shower. Most of us will stay dry with high temperatures in the lower 80s.

Friday is looking like another gorgeous day with blue skies, sunshine and high temperatures in the low-to-mid 80s.

Saturday is looking like our warmest over the next seven days. We expect plenty of sunshine with high temperatures in the mid to upper 80s. In fact some inland spots may top of the 90° mark.

A cold front arrives on Sunday, bringing us milder weather as we head into next week. Expect a slight chance for a shower on Sunday and a little better chance on Monday.
