Official highs will be either 50° or maybe 49°, but most of our day today will see temps in the mid-40's, gusty winds coming in out of the west, and light rain and drizzle not making things feel any warmer.
Up until now, this month has been hot with an average daily temperature of 55.9°. We are currently tied for the fourth warmest start on record through the first 16 days of the month. This is the warmest start since 2010.
Today will be the 'back to reality' day though with afternoon highs just around 48 degrees.
Even colder temperatures will be in place on Tuesday with morning lows dipping to the mid-30s and highs in the mid to upper 40s.
This afternoon is looking pretty nasty with temps in the 40s, light rain, and winds gusting to the low 30s.
Wind chills will be in the upper 30s at times. Be prepared, as afternoon weather won't feel as comfortable as it feels this morning.
Looking ahead, there isn't a lot of concerning weather on the horizon. Highs will return to the 60s on Wednesday even with morning lows dipping to the 30s. Thursday will probably be the most comfortable day of the week with highs near 80.
Rain chances return on Friday and stick around into Saturday as a cold front passes by. Sunday will be cooler.
