Clouds will increase a bit into the evening, but it is more likely after midnight into Thursday that we see some denser clouds roll in. With the clouds, we will see slightly warmer temperatures compared to the last few mornings. Winds will start to turn to the southeast as well.

As we near sunrise on Thursday we will see a chance at a few isolated showers. These will likely be spotty if they develop at all, but don’t be surprised if we see a quick sprinkle or two between 7 a.m. and 11 a.m. This won’t even be enough rain to water your garden or flowers.

Despite the clouds, Thursday will be our warmest day of the next week. It will be partly to mostly cloudy, but that southwest wind will help temperatures into mid to upper 70s. Clouds will stick around through the evening and overnight into Friday. That is when the front will actually pass through the Valley and bring another slight chance of showers. Rain chances will stay low just because the amount of dry air we have in place.

Friday will be much cooler with temperatures into the low 60s. Skies will clear through the day, but it will be breezy at times with gusts of 10 to 15 mph. The real cold sets in overnight into the weekend.

Lows could be in the mid-30s for Saturday & Sunday and if we see calmer winds that may mean a chance at frost. Our average first frost is October 15, so we are a little ahead schedule, but it is not totally out of the norm. It won’t just be morning cold temperatures, it will be a chilly weekend in general. Temperatures in the 50s on Saturday and low to mid 60s on Sunday.
