We’re looking at some warmer temperatures this morning, with most of us sitting above freezing in the upper 30s and low 40s. Yesterday was a nice day, as temperatures reached up into the mid 50s. So far, this morning is about as cool, with some of us a little warmer than yesterday. Clear skies today will start us out in the mid 30s, with lots of sunshine as we head into the afternoon. High temperatures today will be in the mid and upper 60s. Today we’ll see some gusts pick up, coming from the west at up to 20 mph.
