A weak disturbance will generate a few showers this morning before some brief clearing in some areas this afternoon. Highs today will be well above average - into the mid to upper 40s. A more substantial low passes to our north later today and tonight and may bring a few isolated showers to our area this afternoon and evening. Our next chance for significant precipitation comes Friday. There is a great deal of uncertainty regarding the track of this low. Stay tuned for updates.

High pressure builds across our area today giving us a day to dry up with a few mid-day sunny breaks. A disturbance moves over us tonight with a chance for rain and snow showers and the possibility of a wintry mix including freezing rain. This should be very light.
