October 4, 2016 Afternoon
The rest of the week is expected to be quite warm and sunny with temperatures ranging about 5-10 degrees above normal with sunny skies. That’s the high pressure that is expected to be in control until Hurricane Matthews starts to push it out to sea. We will have a few cloudy days during the weekend with a chance of rain during the second half of the weekend. For Columbus Day, the sun will return with high pressure back in control, but the hurricane will pull in much cooler air.
