The current weather is shaping up to be a wet and somewhat chilly start to the week, with temperatures and precipitation following a pattern typical for this time of year. Today’s forecast includes steady rain primarily in the morning, tapering off by late morning as patchy fog sets in after 1 p.m. The high temperature is expected to reach 52°F, with an east wind around 10 mph adding to the damp conditions. Rainfall is projected to bring between a tenth and a quarter of an inch, a fairly moderate amount, but enough to keep things soggy.
Tonight, the rain will return and continue through much of the evening. Temperatures will dip slightly to a low of 48°F, while winds shift to the southwest at 10–15 mph, with gusts potentially reaching 25 mph. Similar to earlier in the day, rainfall amounts are expected to remain between a tenth and a quarter of an inch. These conditions align closely with what’s often seen in December, as rain and breezy weather are hallmarks of this transitional period leading into winter.
By Tuesday, the rain will largely subside, with only a slight chance of lingering showers early in the morning. The skies will start off cloudy but are forecast to gradually clear, offering some sunshine and a welcome high near 60°F—noticeably warmer than the average December high of around 45–50°F. A west wind of 10 mph, with occasional gusts up to 20 mph, will help to keep things brisk but comfortable. As night falls, temperatures will drop sharply to 33°F, accompanied by partly cloudy skies and calm winds, making it a good evening to bundle up if heading outdoors.
Wednesday’s weather marks a return to rainy conditions, especially in the afternoon. Highs will hover near 51°F, with calm winds transitioning to a gentle southerly breeze. Rain is expected to persist into the night, with lows around 37°F. While precipitation will once again total between a tenth and a quarter of an inch, this midweek system could feel colder given the slightly lower temperatures and the damp atmosphere.
Thursday brings a change, with sunny skies expected to emerge and a cooler high near 46°F, typical for this time of year. The night will be noticeably colder, as lows fall to a brisk 25°F under mostly cloudy skies. By Friday, a mix of rain and snow showers may develop in the afternoon as temperatures reach a high near 42°F. Precipitation chances remain low at 30%, but if it does fall, the wintry mix will likely be light and scattered. Overnight temperatures will again be cold, dipping to around 26°F, with a similar chance of light rain or snow showers before skies begin to clear.
Overall, this week’s weather reflects the variability of early winter, with alternating rain systems, brief moments of sunshine, and colder nights. While temperatures are fluctuating slightly above average at times, the consistent presence of rain is a reminder of the season’s transition.
