- Warm and Dry Weather Ahead

High pressure will continue to dominate the weather pattern for the foreseeable future. Surface high pressure will keep skies mostly, if not completely, clear. A weak wave will move southward from the east. However, no precipitation is expected and the only issue from it will be fairly gusty easterly winds due to stronger easterly flow. Highest gusts expected between 25 to 30 mph. Winds will slacken through the early evening hours. The before mentioned surface pressure, along with dry northerly flow will dominate the weather over the next week. No rain is expected until the end of next week. Temperatures will drop slightly over the weekend, though they will still be near normal, in the 70s, with maximum temperatures increasing through the week. Highs in the low 80s will begin the week and climb into the upper 80s by Friday.
