Synopsis
Warm and breezy conditions are expected over the weekend. A cold front will move through the region on Sunday night, bringing cooler temperatures on Monday. Return flow brings warmer temperatures through the rest of next week, with a small chance for showers into the weekend.

Near Term - Through Sunday
A cold front will pass through the area late Sunday but moisture with the front will be limited and rainfall is not anticipated with the front. Breezy conditions are on tap though. Lows tonight will fall to the mid to upper 50s with highs Sunday in the mid to upper 70s under partly cloudy skies.

Short Term - Sunday Night Through Tuesday
High pressure will build in overnight Sunday into Monday with lighter winds and colder temps, Monday highs and lows being below normal. The high will start to slide off to our north/northeast through Tuesday with winds becoming more SW, temperatures returning to near normal as we begin to warm up in the return flow of the departing high.

Long Term - Tuesday Night Through Saturday
Dry conditions with above normal temperatures through the period. The next chances for rainfall will be into the weekend as a warm front is dragged to our north and we enter the warm sector of a Midwestern low. The limiting factor will be support aloft as aside from the warm front most lift stays to our north.

Marine
Through Sunday...Small Craft conditions are expected to develop overnight and continue into Sunday. West to southwest winds of 15 to 20 KT this afternoon will increase to 20 to 25 KT overnight and continue into Sunday before diminishing a little in the afternoon. Seas of 2 to 4 FT this afternoon will build to 5 to 7 FT overnight before subsiding to 3 to 5 FT late Sunday.

Sunday Night through Thursday...We'll get a bit of a N/NE surge behind the front overnight Sunday into Monday morning with winds increasing to ~20 kts. The front will then stall in the area with high pressure building overhead, N winds becoming lighter. The high will push off to our N/NE with S/SW winds building in again but ~10 kts. Seas will be ~1-3 ft through the period.
