Clouds are increasing, with a few light moving in as an upper disturbance moves through the region. Most of the heavier rain should stay south and west of the Capital Region, and a much warmer, drier pattern is expected to take over for the upcoming week.
Today and tonight: Expect plenty of clouds today, with a few isolated to scattered showers possible, especially west of the Mississippi River. Several locations may stay dry. Temperatures will struggle to climb much due to the cloud cover, with highs generally in the mid-to-upper 50s.
Clouds will linger tonight, and a few more showers could develop, especially across western and southern portions of the region. Temperatures will fall into the 40s.
Up Next: Rain chances gradually diminish Monday as the disturbance moves east. A few showers could linger into the morning, but skies should begin to improve during the afternoon. Highs will be in the lower to mid-60s.
The bigger story is the return of dry weather. Sunshine returns Tuesday, with highs climbing into the lower 70s. Temperatures continue to warm through the middle and latter part of the week, reaching the mid-to-upper 70s Wednesday and Thursday, with a few spots possibly approaching 80 by Friday.
Unfortunately, the extended dry pattern will continue to be a concern given ongoing drought conditions. The next opportunity for a more meaningful rain chance may not arrive until late next weekend or around the beginning of Thanksgiving week.
Tropics: The tropics are quiet, and no tropical weather is expected across the Atlantic Basin, Caribbean, or Gulf of Mexico.
