Discussion
Our recent cool and unsettled weather pattern will continue as we begin the new work week with a cold frontal passage, plenty of clouds and maybe a shower or two. Strong high pressure will follow the frontal passage for Tuesday and Wednesday, but it’ll stay cooler-than-normal for this time of year. It should turn somewhat milder by the end of the week with temperatures getting closer to normal for the middle of May.
