Warming up for Friday

What We’re Tracking

• Big warm-up for Friday
• Pleasant Easter weekend
• Showers and storms by early next week

We're mild this morning with temperatures in the 50s for most of the area as we plan for pleasant weather over the next few days.

Expect plenty of sunshine with even warmer weather for our Friday as highs top out in the middle 70s and our winds pick up even more out of the south through the afternoon. Wind gusts for tomorrow may be as high as 30-35mph for some before a weak front moves through later Friday evening.

Despite the front, the upcoming weekend looks rather pleasant. Highs on Saturday look to make it into the upper 60s, and by Sunday we may make it up into the lower to middle 70s! Rain chances look pretty slim through this time. Overall, Easter weekend is looking pretty nice for egg hunts and outdoor church services!

Slightly better rain chances may hold off until late Sunday and into Monday, and may increase through the first half of next week. There may be a couple isolated showers or storms later Sunday evening, but a better chance for storms arrives through the day Monday. Showers may linger through the morning on Tuesday before cooler air settle in.

That next push of chilly weather doesn't stick around for too long, though. We should be back in the mid 60s by the middle of next week.
