Chief Meteorologist Patrick Rockey’s First Warning Forecast

A week ago we were scraping frost off of our windshields, now we are basking in warm beach weather. But there are more big changes on the way.

A powerful cold front will cross the region late on Tuesday. That will bring us the threat for showers and thunderstorms.

A few of the storms could be severe, bringing damaging winds and hail.

With that cold front we will go from well above normal temperatures to well below.

Wednesday will be our transition day as we drop into the upper 60s. We expect Thursday to be our coolest day with highs only in the lower 60s, about 12° below normal.

Temperatures will settle into the mid 60s under partly cloudy skies for Friday and Saturday.

Another cold front will approach Sunday into Monday bringing a slight chance for rain by Sunday afternoon and a few storms possible on Monday.
