We got some freezing temperatures returning to the area around the mid-week. While most of the area should see temperatures only get as low as 30, there is the possibility for some mid-20s. Be sure to protect plants and pipes.
Above normal temperatures and dry conditions will persist into Monday, with highs in the mid 70's to mid 80's. Breezy N to NE winds will develop late Monday afternoon and evening as a cold front surges southward through the region. Cooler temperatures, pervasive cloud cover and periods of rain will follow, in the wake of the front, Monday night through Wednesday.
