Cool and dry today! Heavy rain likely on Saturday tapering off to showers on Sunday! Significant warm up next week!

FRIDAY  MAY 12, 2017  6:00 A.M.

Skies are partly cloudy early on this Friday morning and temperatures range from the mid 40s in Clifton to some mid 30s further inland, winds are nearly calm.

Today we will have a cool day with increasing high clouds as a weak high pressure moves off the coast.

A rather strong low pressure will cause rain to develop before daybreak on Saturday and becoming moderate to heavy at times in the afternoon and night. It will be chilly with high temperatures only reaching the 50s.  Rainfall amounts should average from 1-2 inches.

The low pressure will move slowly away on Sunday but we should still have a good chance of showers; temperatures will not be as chilly as on Saturday, and we may see some sunshine by Sunday afternoon.

High pressure will build into the area next week, it will be mainly dry with finally warmer temperatures with readings into the 80s by Wednesday.
