Outlook
Warm conditions will persist today, but a cold front will push through the area tonight, bringing cooler and drier air for the early part of the coming week. A moist coastal system will pass just to our south Tuesday and may bring some precipitation, but another dry airmass will return in its wake. Warmer temperatures are expected for the second half of the week.
