BREEZY WITH CHILLY CONDITIONS

Cloudy skies are in place today, and you’ll want to keep the umbrella handy for a few spotty showers. It’s also going to be on the breezy side, with wind gusts at times near 30 miles per hour, making it feel a bit chillier than the thermometer suggests. Afternoon temperatures will struggle, only reaching the mid-40s.

For tonight, clouds stick around with areas of drizzle and light rain developing after midnight and continuing into early Friday morning. It won’t be quite as cold, with overnight lows settling in the 40s, but damp conditions could make for a gloomy start to the day.

Heading into Friday, expect some leftover showers and drizzle during the morning hours. As the day goes on, we’ll keep mostly cloudy skies in place, but it will turn a bit milder. High temperatures climb into the mid to upper 50s, offering a slight improvement compared to today.

Looking ahead to the weekend, Saturday brings partly sunny skies and a noticeable warm-up, with highs reaching into the 60s. There is a chance of a late-day shower, but much of the day looks dry. For Easter Sunday, clouds return along with showers, and temperatures will be a bit cooler again, mainly in the upper 50s.
