The week ahead: Above-normal temperatures as we head into May

/ April 28, 2024 at 5:36 PM

High pressure will be the main weather driver again this week, which will help drive temperatures a few degrees above normal to close out April and bring in May. Monday will be the coolest day of the period with lows in the upper 50s yielding to highs in the low 80s in the afternoon under mostly sunny skies. We warm a little bit on Tuesday with a bit more in the way of cloud cover as well (and maybe a shower or storm well inland). Seabreeze thunderstorms could be in the offing for Wednesday as we get into a stretch of temperatures about 5° or so above normal that’ll last well into the weekend. Quiet weather is expected Thursday and Friday before another disturbance potentially spawns a few isolated thunderstorms on Saturday afternoon as well as into Sunday. No washouts expected, though.
