COLD AGAIN EARLY NEXT WEEK
Our current weather pattern is keeping us warm and sunny throughout the weekend. Our best chance of thunderstorms will come in two waves. First, we will see the chance for isolated t-storms on Thursday. Those chances will mainly include garden-variety storms on Thursday afternoon. Our next chance comes on Mother’s Day, which could bring a few strong thunderstorms as our highs top out in the middle 70s.
A significant cool-down is on the way early next week. Monday remains above average, but a large low-pressure system will move in and draw much cooler Canadian air into place by Tuesday. That cool-down is expected to keep temperatures chilly through most of next week.
