Discussion              

High pressure pushes off the coast today and that re-positioning will open the door here for much warmer weather during the next few days. After morning clouds and showers, the afternoon will feature clearing skies and temperatures will jump to the 70 degree mark. On Wednesday and Thursday, it turns even warmer with a run to 80 degrees on the table each day and there can be a shower and thunderstorm from time-to-time. A cool front passes through on Thursday night and the work week will end cooler and then a second cold front likely ushers in colder air for Easter Sunday.
