Back to the Present Day…

Enjoy the glorious weather. It’s here to stay for a while!

Our temperatures are set to gradually increase over the forecast period. High temperatures in the mid-70’s next week anyone?

Our next rain chances won’t arrive until Wednesday or Thursday, though the models keep delaying its arrival. We will update you with more specifics once we get closer to the frontal passage and models are closer to agreement.

Until then, have a great Friday!
