MOSTLY CLOUDY EVENING

After a decent day, but with more clouds around it will be a comfortable evening with temperatures gradually dropping through the 50s and eventually into the 40s under a mostly cloudy sky for the first half of the night. A few light raindrops are possible, too.

Overnight, skies turn partly cloudy. Overnight lows will settle into the 40s, so it’s a mild and quiet night across the area with no weather issues to worry about.

SHOWERS ARRIVE LATE TOMORROW

As we head into Wednesday, we’ll see a similar pattern play out. Some morning sunshine will give way to increasing clouds during the afternoon. High temperatures will once again hover around 60 degrees. Attention then turns to Wednesday night, when we begin tracking a round of wet weather that will carry into early Thursday.

Thursday looks unsettled with cloudy skies and scattered showers in the morning. Highs will be a bit cooler, topping out in the upper 50s to near 60. The good news is that this system moves out in time for a nicer finish to the week, with sunshine returning on Friday and temperatures rebounding into the upper 50s and lower 60s.

Tonight: Mostly cloudy, with a low around 44. Southeast wind around 5 to 10 mph.

Wednesday: Partly sunny, with a high near 60. Light east wind becoming southeast 5 to 15 mph in the morning.

Wednesday Night: Cloudy skies with Showers. Low around 47. Southeast wind 5 to 10 mph.

Thursday: Cloudy skies with scattered showers mainly in the morning. Highs 55 to 60. Northeast wind 10 to 15 mph becoming northwest in the afternoon. Rain totals less than half an inch.

Thursday Night: Partly cloudy, with a low around 43.

Friday: Mostly Sunny, with a high near 59.
