Mostly Cloudy but Warmer

Cloudy skies prevented temperatures from dropping overnight, and it actually hovered around 39 most of the night. Despite a building upper level ridge and warm temperatures above the surface, we won't be able to completely realize the high temperature potential today due to cloud cover associated with a frontal boundary to our south. That's the same front that moved through on Saturday but has stalled along the Gulf coast for the last couple of days. We should see some breaks in the clouds this afternoon and this should bump us into the 50s. Highs this afternoon will top out at 54.

As our next weather maker begins to organize in West Texas tonight, it will begin to lift the stalled frontal boundary north as a warm front. Therefore, temperatures tonight may remain steady or even rise some after midnight. Skies will be cloudy and there is the possibility that a few showers may occur as the warm front retreats northward. Temperatures will be around 51 tomorrow morning. Tomorrow will easily be our warmest day before we turn cold again for the remainder of the week.
