REST OF TODAY

We will be roughly 5 degrees warmer today as highs climb into the mid 60s for both the beaches and inland areas. While it will still be cool for this time of year, this will be the start of a rebounding trend for the area.

A developing low pressure system off shore this weekend will stay to our north and east. This system at one point looked like it could bring some rain to the area, thankfully, that trend has started to fade. A few fair weather clouds will be possible from the system but the rain chances look to stay well to the east and north, keeping the forecast mild and dry for any weekend plans.
