   As of 07:00 Hrs we have some mid level cloud with unlimited visibility.


For the forecast, the upper ridge is moving into our area with some cloud around this morning, but we should see a mostly sunny day. The ridge moves East tomorrow with warm sunny conditions expected.  For Wednesday an onshore flow will likely bring clouds to the area with sunny breaks, still dry and warm as the pattern continues into Friday. Still some disagreement in the models for the weekend, but it does look like a weak trough is heading our way. More on that later in the week.

    High pressure should bring warmer temperature for tomorrow.

    Wednesday is looking like another nice day, may see some cloud move in from offshore flow.

   A trough is approaching for Friday, this model may change by then!! Possibly Saturday?
