After a few seasonably cool days, temperatures will rise back above average heading toward the weekend. Saturday will be a very pleasant day with highs near 60° and partly cloudy skies. Sunday will be a bit breezy but mild as a warm front will lift through the area.

The warm front will be associated with this next passing weather system that will remain primarily North of us, keeping the highest coverage of rain Northward Sunday into Monday. Locally, we will see a few showers and even a rumble or two of thunder early Sunday, with only spotty showers then the rest of Monday.

This weather system will carve out a trough, or dip in the jet stream. This trough will also bring temperatures back down below average into Tuesday as a cooler air mass settles in overhead.

Next week will feature prominent Northwest flow aloft as the main troughing moves East. This Northwest flow a few miles up in the atmosphere will keep our surface temperatures near or just below average. Rain chances will remain slim, as the Northwesterly pattern does not typically favor lots of moisture surging this far North. After a drier pattern Tuesday evening into Wednesday, our next chances for rain could arrive Thursday-Friday.
