Apology

First off, I want to apologize to my readers for not giving you a Saturday forecast.  Friday night was game night which means I was up until 2am playing poker and Wii.

You may ask why I'm up at 4am on a Sunday doing the weather.  It could be my raging case of insomnia, it could be that every time I fall asleep my cat lays down on my feet, or it could be the enchiladas and half pitcher of sangria I had for dinner (thanks John).  But, more than anything, it's remorse.  And I figured as long as I was up anyway, I should take a look at what mother nature has to offer us.

We're currently smack dab in between two big low pressure systems, which is good because it means high pressure for us and uneventful, easily forecasted weather for me.  The first low was our Friday rain maker and the second low looks to be headed our way for Monday.  However, tomorrow should be pleasant with clear skies and highs in the mid/upper 60s.  Some clouds roll in for the afternoon and evening as this new low approaches.  Look for evening temps to fall into the upper 50s and down to 49 by Monday morning. 

The Monday low will be the next weather headline but specifics are sketchy right now.  In my opinion, it looks like the winds will wreak more havoc than the rain for our area.  The bulk of the system may pass to our south but it's too early to tell.  Expect further details tonight as the system nears and I have a sufficient amount of sleep.

Today:  Sunny with some afternoon clouds, high 66. Winds NE switching to SE at about 10mph.
Tonight:  Cloudy skies with temps 56-58 in the evening; low of 49 by morning with showers. SE winds near 20-25mph.
