Dry air, light winds, and clear skies allowed the temperature to drop to 27 this morning. That's fairly impressive given that we had almost an inch of rain yesterday. Clouds will quickly increase this morning as an upper level disturbance and cold front moves in our direction. Skies will be partly to mostly cloudy at times today and this will keep temperatures on the cool side. The high should be able to hit 50 this afternoon. Breezy conditions will be felt again today as we have strong pressure gradient in place. Wind gusts could exceed 25 mph at times today so hold onto those hats!
Polar air will accompany the frontal passage late this afternoon and we're looking at a chilly evening. Skies should be clear tonight and dew points will be in the low teens. However, models insist that winds will be strong enough to keep temperatures from plummeting. I'm still going to undercut guidance since we got colder than expected this morning. I think it will be 20 in the morning, but I wouldn't be shocked to see the temperature in the upper teens.
