MONDAY: Sandwiched between an area of high pressure to our east and a developing low to the west; expect southerly wind to flow in aggressively, bringing in warm, muggy air to the region. Highs will top out in the upper 70s and lower 80s with variably to mostly cloudy skies. Clouds and breezes will keep temperatures elevated overnight, into the 60s.
TUESDAY: Expect nearly a carbon copy of your Monday for Tuesday – though temperatures may be slightly cooler, mainly upper 70s to near 80°. Breezes will still flow in aggressively from the south.
MID-WEEK STORMS: A sluggish storm system will make progress to the east through Wednesday and Thursday – spreading rain and storms across the region. There is the possibility of a few strong storms amid a flooding threat as the system moves in through Wednesday and Thursday. For Wednesday – ahead of the storms, we'll manage to run temperatures up into the 80s; as the rain moves in, lower 70s will be the call for Thursday. Rainfall amounts could end up totaling 2-5" regionwide.
EASTER WEEKEND: Things turn a bit more tranquil through the latter half of the week. Highs will be in the 70s with mostly to partly sunny skies heading into Easter weekend. As of now, we'll likely stay dry for sunrise services as well.
