OVERVIEW: Beautiful weekend setting up with high pressure in control, meaning lots of sunshine and pleasant temperatures.  Small storm chances may arrive by Memorial Day, then a more active weather pattern next week.

wonderful day for all outdoor activities going on, as high temperatures reach the middle to upper 70s under a sunny sky.  For Sunday, expect a few more clouds for the southwestern half of the state, but at this time I think the high pressure will remain strong enough to keep any rain west of here.  The attached images to the right depict the surface map for Saturday morning, evening, and Sunday morning.  You can see how the area remains under the strong influence of high pressure.  Sunday's highs will be near the 80 degree mark for most locations.  For Memorial Day, you will begin to feel the increase in humidity along with the warmer temps.  Highs for Memorial Day will reach the middle 80s.  There may be a couple isolated storms, but most areas will stay dry.  Overall a perfect 3 day weekend weather-wise!!  

NEXT WEEK: A more unsettled pattern will return with daily scattered storm chances.  High temperatures will range from the upper 70s to mid 80s on a daily basis with night-time lows in the 60s. 

HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!!!
