Numerical Models

A weak area of high pressure over the Northeast may bring us a few peeks of sunshine today, however, by tomorrow a potent storm system from the deep south will be taking its place. This low pressure system will bring windy conditions, scattered showers, and a chance for a gusty thunderstorm. Finally, that system will move out of the area on Friday and slightly cooler conditions will follow for the weekend. Today: Mostly cloudy skies with a few peeks of sun. High: Near 65 Tonight: Mild and breezy with increasing clouds and a chance of showers. Low: Thursday: Windy with showers and a possible thunderstorm developing. High: Thursday Night: Evening showers, breezy and mild. Low: Friday: Mix of clouds and sun with a mild breeze. High: Typical Forecast
