Wind decreases through the weekend

Gusty winds prevailed today and will continue tonight through most of tomorrow, gradually easing by the end of the weekend. Aside from the breezy conditions, it looks to be a decent weekend with mostly sunshine and cool temperatures.

The strengthening area of low pressure that brought rain from yesterday through this morning is now moving away. High pressure will settle in by Sunday, allowing the pressure gradient to weaken. As a result, the wind won’t be as strong by the end of the weekend.

Wind gusts will remain strongest tomorrow, especially in the morning, with gusts near or above 30 mph possible. While noticeable, this won’t pose a damaging wind threat for most areas. It will stay breezy through tomorrow evening before the wind relaxes overnight into Sunday. Sunday afternoon will see only a light breeze.

Saturday morning temperatures will start in the low 40s, then rebound to the mid-50s under mostly sunny skies. With clear skies and lighter winds Saturday night, temperatures will drop to near freezing by Sunday morning. Sunday will be a cold start, and the day will stay cool with highs mainly in the low 50s under mostly sunny conditions.

Don’t forget, Daylight Saving Time ends this weekend—hello to 6:00 a.m. sunrises and 4:30 p.m. sunsets!

The weekend will remain dry, with the next chance of showers arriving Monday night and lingering into early Tuesday morning.
