Meteorologist Madeline Evans’ First Warning Forecast

70s will return for midweek. Highs will warm into the low 70s for Wednesday and Thursday, a bit above normal for this time of year. Expect mostly sunny skies on Wednesday with a few extra clouds on Thursday as a cold front moves in. The highest rain chance we see for the week is Thursday as that front moves through but will still only be at 20%.

Once the front passes our highs will drop back into the low 60s and upper 50s for Friday and the weekend.

Today: Mix of Sun & Clouds, Cool, Windy. Highs near 60. Winds: W 10-20G25

Tonight: Partly Cloudy. Lows in the low to mid 40s. Winds: NW 5-15

Tomorrow: A Few Clouds, Warmer. Highs in the low 70s. Winds: N/S 5-10
