Discussion
A disturbance in the upper atmosphere will pass off to our northeast this morning and high pressure will build in for the next couple of days. It’ll remain cooler-than-normal here today and again on Tuesday as our chilly weather pattern continues for a bit longer, but then it should turn milder on Wednesday (Halloween Day) as our low-level winds turn to a southwesterly direction ahead of the next frontal system. The mid-week warm up will peak on Thursday just ahead of the next cool front which should bring us showers by Thursday night and cooler conditions again to end the work week.
