A very mild night is ahead with temps only falling into the lower 60s under a partly cloudy sky. The mild spring-like weather continues with mid 70s returning tomorrow afternoon. Southeasterly winds will be established throughout the day. Winds of 10 to 20 mph along with gust 30-35 mph will be possible. A strong storm system will be advancing toward us Tuesday night.  This system will bring in a line of showers and thunderstorms with some strong to severe.  The main threats will be damaging winds, very heavy rain, and even a few tornadoes possible. Unfortunately, the main line will be coming through during the overnight hours. Be sure to have a way of receiving severe storm warnings. The storms will be around through late Wednesday morning but everyone moves into the clear that afternoon.  A colder and drier air mass will return and it sticks around through Saturday.  Looks like our next opportunity for rain arrives Sunday.

TONIGHT: MOSTLY CLOUDY AND MILD. WINDS SE 5-10 MPH. LOWS 59-63

TUESDAY: MOSTLY CLOUDY WITH SHOWERS POSSIBLE. WINDS S/SE 10-20 MPH WITH GUST 30-35 MPH LATE. HIGHS 72-77
