After a gorgeous weekend, expect nice weather ahead throughout the week, with temperatures running slightly below average today and tomorrow before warming later in the week. A trough will push through the area today pulling daytime highs down into the upper 60s. Westerly winds will also increase to 10–15 mph, with gusts near 20 mph possible, especially during the afternoons. Overnight temperatures could also dip below average with lows in the 30s, giving us a nice taste of fall weather, autumn officially arrives tomorrow at 5:04 PM.

Higher pressure will return for midweek, leading to a warming trend through Friday as daytime highs climb back into the 70s. I'm also monitoring the Eastern Pacific, where increasing activity could send moisture northward if we can time it right with a trough off the West Coast. If conditions do in fact align, we could see a few showers or thunderstorms develop over the weekend, or more likely, early next week. However, we're still a ways out, so plenty can change!
