Monday starts cool and bright, with sunshine already in place and temperatures in the upper 40s to low 50s. It may feel a little milder than the thermometer early, so the first part of the day should be comfortable for a quick walk, coffee run or school drop-off.
By afternoon, sunshine stays in control and temperatures climb to a high of 76. A light west-northwest wind around 8 mph, with gusts up to 15 mph, will keep the air moving without causing much trouble. Rain is not expected, with just a 1% chance during the day.
Monday evening stays quiet as the sun goes down, with a few more clouds drifting in but no rain concerns. Temperatures ease back through the 60s, and winds turn lighter.
Overnight, expect partly cloudy skies and a low near 51. It should stay calm and dry, making for an easy night if you are heading home late or cracking a window before bed.
The allergy index is worth noting today. Tree pollen is high, while grass, mold and ragweed levels are low.
Tuesday turns warmer, with a high near 83 and a low around 54. Expect a mostly sunny to partly cloudy day with a breezy southwest wind, then keep an eye out for a possible evening thunderstorm.
