Clouds dominate the first part of today before sunshine take over later. Wednesday is still below normal temperature-wise.  But, expect major late week warming.  Temperatures will warm to the low 80’s Thursday and mid to upper 80’s Good Friday through Sunday.  We’re storm-free and dry through Easter.  Here’s my brief forecast discussion.
