Much drier air has moved over our area as promised today bringing a beautiful spring day with lots of sun and cool, breezy northeasterly winds.

The storm that was initially forecast to bring inclement weather to our for today and tomorrow now looks to say south of us as the cool northerly flow continues Monday, bringing a mostly similar day to today.

A weak wave from the north moves mostly east of our area Monday night, and though it may bring some clouds overnight and into Tuesday morning, the northerly push keeps the weather associated with the old Great Basin storm to our south for another cool spring day with mostly sunny skies by the afternoon.

The warm-up arrives in earnest for Wednesday and Thursday with a welcome dose of above average temperatures for a change, though it now appears there will be a threat of afternoon and possibly evening storms by later Thursday as yet another large storm looks to affect cross the coast then.

Energy ejected over our area will bring breezy southwest winds, moisture and lift that will fuel the late Thursday storms. The storm is then forecast to move eastward and possibly bring inclement weather to our area for Mother’s Day weekend.
