Discussion

After a warm frontal passage on Sunday, the warmest air of the season so far will push into the area and afternoon temperatures today should reach the middle 80’s. A backdoor cool front approaches the area this evening and hangs around on Tuesday and this can result in scattered showers and thunderstorms. Temperatures will not be as high on Tuesday on the other side of the frontal system with highs likely around 70 degrees following the 80’s of later today. It stays unsettled at mid-week with additional showers and thunderstorms possible and afternoon high temperatures again likely close to the 70 degree mark.
