Good Morning! It’s been wet overnight with a steady band of light rain. A cold front is sweeping through the state. The risk of rain will end this morning. After 69 yesterday, today will be breezy and cooler with falling temperatures. We’re headed for another freeze tonight. Thursday will be sunny and way below normal with highs in the 40’s. This will be a rather brief temperature set-back. There is a major temperature re-bound in our future. Highs 60+ begins Friday. We’re looking forward to the nicest weekend forecast of 2026 so far. It appears that the Arctic Floodgates will close for several days. The 16 day model ensemble forecast shows an extended milder trend. Here’s my brief video forecast discussion.
