Chief Meteorologist Patrick Rockey's First Warning Forecast
If Tuesday morning wasn't cold enough for you, just wait! It looks like Wednesday morning will bring us the coldest temperatures since last February.
Most of us will wake up to temperatures in the 20s and folks in a few inland spots will likely step out the door to the 20s!
Tuesday afternoon will be colder than Wednesday, when most of us saw highs in the mid-to-upper 40s. But the winds will be much lighter, so it will likely be more comfortable.
And it will be more comfortable on Thursday, as our winds shift to the southwest. Under partly cloudy skies, we expect to top out in the mid 50s, which is not far off of our normal highs.
The warming trend continues Friday and into the weekend, when we'll be climbing into the upper 50s and lower 60s.
The trade off: rain. We have a decent chance for showers from Friday through Monday.
And while we desperately still need rain, this isn't looking like a drought buster. Our longer rang forecast models are all painting in less than an inch of rain. Stay tuned.
