Daily Weather Briefing for Saturday, February 15, 2020





Outlook

With cool and dry high pressure in place today, moisture will gradually return to the area later this weekend ahead of the next approaching cold front, which will cross the county Tuesday or Tuesday night. Light precipitation and cool temperatures may linger through the middle of the week as this front becomes stalled just south of us.
