4Warn Weather – After a beautiful start to the weekend, we are going to keep the dry weather into the forecast as we move into the majority of the end of the weekend on Sunday.

We are starting off our Sunday with sunshine across the region, but as we work into the afternoon we will start to increase the cloud cover as our next frontal boundary moves into the region. Expect mostly cloudy skies by the time we get to sunset. High temperatures into the Middle 50s by Sunday afternoon.

Rain rolls into the region late Sunday night into the overnight hours and should pull out of the region before sunrise on Monday morning. While we will start the day on Monday with some cloud cover, data is showing that we are looking at improving conditions as we head toward the solar eclipse on Monday afternoon. I am keeping a partly cloudy sky into the forecast as we are heading into Monday afternoon, some places could even go mostly sunny into the afternoon. High temperatures heading for the 60s by Monday afternoon.

We will keep some clouds and some sunshine into the forecast on Tuesday, but as a cold front rolls into the region, we will bring the chance of showers and even a few thunderstorms into the forecast in the mid to late afternoon and evening hours. High temperatures into the upper 60s into the afternoon.

Dry weather sticks around with clouds around Wednesday before widespread rain is back into forecast for end of next week for Thursday and Friday. High temperatures dropping a few degrees, heading into the lower 60s on Thursday and into the middle 50s by the end of the week on Friday.

Expect sunshine to return to the forecast for the start of next weekend on Saturday. Mostly sunny skies are expected, and high temperatures will head into the lower 60s into Saturday afternoon.
