Another mixed week with mainly cautious to hazardous water conditions. There will be a chance of showers all week. These showers will be mainly scattered rain to snow showers with the possibility of a wintry mix as well. Monday Night and Tuesday will have the highest chances of precipitation. Any snow will have accumulations of an inch or less, if any. Highs will range from the 20’s to the 30’s with lows in the teens to 30’s. This week will have the coldest air of the season. Water conditions will be cautious to hazardous all week, however it will be a predominantly west wind, so surf conditions won’t be as bad.. Water temperatures are steady in the 50’s
Weak low pressure will pass by well to our north tonight, followed by high pressure on Monday. A stronger low will also pass by to the north on Tuesday. The associated cold front will usher in very cold air for Tuesday night and Wednesday. Another weak low may cross the area on Thursday or Friday, followed by high pressure and more moderate temperatures heading into next weekend.
Have a great week and thanks for reading!
