Forecast Discussion

High pressure moves in today and will be dominant through the weekend, promoting abundant sunshine for today, Saturday and Sunday. Temperatures will start to warm up today and will plateau to near average, rather pleasant, for Saturday & Sunday.

A weak cold front will pass through on Monday with just a few extra clouds. Behind the front, it will be cooler in the days leading up to Thanksgiving, although dry weather should hold through Black Friday.
