Skies are cloudy across the area early on this Thursday morning and there are some scattered light showers around as the main area of rain that fell overnight has moved offshore, temperatures are very mild with readings ranging from the low 50s in the Clifton area to the mid 40s further inland, these early morning temperature are more typical for the middle of May.
Today we will have considerable cloudiness but temperatures should climb to near 60 degrees and if we get any sunshine the mid 60s are possible. The day should remain mostly dry but we can’t rule out a light shower in some areas mainly this morning.
A cold front will come through tonight only accompanied by clouds and a low chance of a shower, the front will be followed by cooler air for Friday but temperatures will still be above normal.
On Saturday high pressure will build down from Canada giving us even colder temperatures and some moisture from a front to our south will likely produce some light snow, at this time only about an inch of snow is possible.
Sunday and Monday should be dry with seasonably cold temperatures.
A warm front will be moving through the area Tuesday morning accompanied by some rain that may start off as a wintery mix inland.
Milder weather will be with us Tuesday through the end of next week.
