KEY MESSAGES

Updated at 213 PM EDT Mon Apr 6 2026

- Dry weather this week and through the upcoming weekend.

- Seasonably cool into Wednesday, followed by a warming trend.

DISCUSSION

Issued at 213 PM EDT Mon Apr 6 2026

A weak and moisture starved cold front currently just to our north will sag south into our area this evening and may make it south of our area later tonight before washing out Tuesday. This front will have little impact other than to temporarily delay the next warm up. Surface high pressure will build in behind the front later tonight and Tuesday and will continue to extend into our area as it shifts to the east Wednesday. This will keep things dry and seasonably cool into Wednesday with temperatures near to a bit below normal. There may be late night/early morning patchy frost in a few areas over the next few nights, especially north, with the coldest night likely to be Tuesday night.

Good mixing will lead to low relative humidity values each afternoon over the next several days, with minimum RH values likely dipping into the 20s and 30s each afternoon.

High pressure will remain in control with a dry weather forecast for the remainder of the period through Monday, along with a warming trend. Temperatures will be back to well above normal by the weekend into Monday, with highs near or above 80 degrees common in valley areas.
