The warm weather continues into the start of the weekend, but big changes are on the way.
A ridge of high pressure remains in control through Saturday, keeping temperatures well above normal. In fact, with plenty of sunshine both Friday and Saturday, we may make a run at 80 degrees in some spots. Friday night will be rather mild, with our low temperatures fairly close to our normal high temperatures for late-October. A cold front moves through Saturday evening, with clouds streaming in along with it. Sunday will feature plenty of clouds, and it will turn much cooler, but we’ll still be close to normal for this time of year. A wave of low pressure riding along the front brings in some rain during the afternoon. Occasional showers will continue for Sunday night and a good chunk of Monday as the cooler air continues to filter in. As the wave and the front push farther offshore later Monday, we may see some clearing develop as high pressure starts to build in. A much cooler pattern settles in for next week with below normal temperatures. Some of the models show the potential for a storm later Tuesday into Wednesday which may not be all rain if you’re well inland, and could impact trick-or-treating Tuesday evening, but we’ll get into more detail on that in our Weekly Outlook Monday morning.
