Another chilly start with ample frost and morning lows below freezing but we start warming up today on a southwest wind.

We keep warming into the weekend with highs well into the 70s by Sunday and Monday. We stay dry through early next week.

Lingering showers and chilly conditions to start our Tuesday but high pressure building in from the west will clear and dry things up. Highs today will struggle just to reach the low 50s! That's about 10 degrees or more below the climate averages. Overnight we'll cool into the low 30s and upper 20s. A Freeze Warning goes into effect at 1am through 9am Wednesday for our entire area. We warm up later this week with ample sun and get back to 70s by the weekend.
