Cool & Showery For Now
Cool onshore flow will continue ahead
of a storm system sliding down the coast. Its cold front will arrive on Tuesday
afternoon, bringing a reinforcing blow of chilly air and a few rounds of
showers. Unstable northwesterly flow will allow for additional shower chances
Wednesday and Thursday, all the while keeping temperatures cool. High pressure
will then build in as we head into the weekend. Warmer, dryer conditions
expected.
Overnight: Mostly cloudy with a few sprinkles possible. Lows in the
40s.
Tuesday: Partly to mostly cloudy with scattered showers—mainly in
the north earlier in the day. Expect highs in the 50s with occasional breezy conditions.
Wednesday: Partly cloudy with
scattered showers. Cool and breezy with highs in the 50s. Winds could get gusty
on the coast at times.
Extended: Rain chances will begin to wind down on Thursday, but an
isolated shower or two will be possible along with chilly, blustery conditions.
Conditions become more tranquil, but still cool on Friday. Temperatures will
warm up through the weekend with highs returning close to if not above normal
by Sunday/Monday.
The outlook from the Climate Prediction Center for March 31st – April 6th
calls for the likelihood of BELOW temperatures and near
normal precipitation.
