A Few High Clouds, Mild

It's a chilly start to the day with temperatures currently running in the upper 30s. The pesky cut off low that plagued our weather for the past couple of days will exert very little influence on our weather today. In fact, a shortwave ridge will build across the area throughout the day as another trough digs into the Four Corners. This should keep us dry, but a few cirrus clouds will pass overhead at times today. This will prevent temperatures from reaching their maximum potential, but highs should still top out around 69 this afternoon. Winds will veer around to the southeast tonight, which should increase dew points. I have a hard time believing skies are clear overnight with the amount of cirrus clouds to our west, but lows should be able to drop near 44 tomorrow morning.

The weekend weather looks great, especially Saturday with mostly sunny skies and highs in the low to mid 70s. The game on Saturday night should be played under a few clouds with temperatures falling into the 50s throughout the course of the game. A few more clouds will be likely on Sunday with highs in the mid 70s. Our dry streak will come to an end late Tuesday or Wednesday as a cut off low swings a cold front toward the region.
