AFTER A CHILLY START TO THE WEEKEND, BELOW NORMAL AND COOLER
TEMPERATURES THIS WEEKEND WILL BEGIN TO GRADUALLY TREND WARMER AND
CLOSER TO SEASONAL NORMALS BY MID NEXT WEEK. WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO
BECOME LIGHT AND VARIABLE WITH SKIES REMAIN CLEAR SATURDAY NIGHT
INTO SUNDAY MORNING, PROVIDING A GOOD SETUP FOR RADIATIONAL
COOLING. THIS WOULD CAUSE OVERNIGHT LOWS TO FALL INTO THE MID 30S
TO LOWER 40S ACROSS MOST OF THE AREA. LOW-LYING AREAS AND RIVER
VALLEYS MAY DROP INTO THE MID 30S, WHICH COULD BRING THE POTENTIAL
FOR A LIGHT FROST BEING EXPERIENCE ACROSS THESE AREAS THAT SEE THE
COLDEST TEMPERATURES.
A STEADY WARM UP WILL CONTINUE INTO THE END OF NEXT WEEK AS
UPPER-LEVEL RIDGING REDEVELOPS ACROSS THE AREAS MID TO LATE NEXT
WEEK. HIGH TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED TO GRADUALLY RISE INTO THE
MID 70S TO MID 80S BY MID WEEK, AND INTO THE 80S BY NEXT FRIDAY.
