We’re settling into an extended stretch of dry weather, with plenty of high clouds and comfortable temperatures to start the week. Another cold front arrives late this week, setting the stage for the coolest weather of the season so far by Friday and Saturday.

Today and tonight:  Expect a mix of sunshine and high clouds today. Despite the cloud cover, rain is not expected, and afternoon temperatures should reach the low to mid 70s. Low humidity will make it feel comfortable outside, but the dry air will also keep fire concerns elevated. Tonight will be partly cloudy and cool, with temperatures generally falling into the 40s and 50s.

Up Next: A generally dry pattern continues Tuesday and Wednesday. A disturbance passing through the region may bring additional clouds, but there is very little moisture available to produce meaningful rainfall. Highs will remain in the 70s, with some locations possibly reaching around 80. A stronger cold front will move through late this week. A few brief showers or sprinkles can’t be ruled out along the front, but the most likely outcome is dry weather. 

Friday and Saturday will bring the first real taste of winter-like weather this season. Friday highs are expected to top out in the mid to upper 60s, with breezy conditions making it feel cooler. Saturday will be similarly cool, but with lighter winds. Morning lows could drop into the 30s across the northern half of the area, especially Saturday morning.

Tropics: The National Hurricane Center says tropical cyclone formation is not expected in the Atlantic, Caribbean Sea, or Gulf over the next seven days.
