Lovely Valentine’s Day turning warm and somewhat unsettled for SEWE weekend

Jared Smith / February 14, 2019 at 8:51 AM

It’s a beautiful day for love in whatever form you express it.

We’ve got a nice Valentine’s Day coming up — at least weather-wise. (How nice your Valentine’s Day ends up being will largely be determined by other factors.) However, an unsettled pattern with periods of showers awaits us for the weekend.
