Current Radar

CLOUD COVER

If you plan on doing any Holiday shopping or going to see the Star Wars Movie today, make sure to take a jacket! Temperatures are much cooler today with highs only reaching the low to mid 40s around the region.

Once the evening arrives temperatures will tumble rapidly into the upper 30s by 5:00 PM.

Saturday – Plenty of Sunshine! Waking Up: 28° High: 52°

We will be warming up today under a sunny sky. High moves over our area and influences our winds with its clockwise flow. Winds will shift from out of the north to out of the south at 5 to 10 mph on Saturday.

SA 6 AM

Sunday – Waking Up: 32° High: 59°

Rain chances will increase Sunday evening as high pressure moves to the east. A surface low will be moving in from the west while tracking northeast.

Dew points will stay below 40° so overall humidity continues to stay pretty low. The reason I mention humidity – severe weather will not happen on Sunday. Clouds will begin to increase by noon on Sunday with rain ahead of a cold front moving in late afternoon/early evening on Sunday. There is a little uncertainty with timing on this next system. Models do not really agree on the timing. I think it will rain Sunday evening though and all day Monday. Moisture will rise on Sunday into Monday along with temperatures.

Extended: Expect above normal temperatures for the upcoming busy, holiday week. A chance of rain is in the forecast every single day. Check out those temperatures…
