Enjoy the Warmth While it Lasts

The weather this past weekend was nothing short of amazing for early February. We didn't set any records in Richmond, but missed by only one degree on Saturday and just three on Sunday. Both days were in the 70s, with light winds and a ton of sunshine. We have another mild duo of days ahead of us this week on Tuesday and Wednesday, but there's a little bit of a catch. Cloud cover will be much more prevalent than over the weekend, and it looks to be quite a bit breezier as well. The changing conditions will be in response to a strong storm system that will move through the area Wednesday night. We'll have a chance for showers and even a thunderstorm, but most of the severe weather with this system should be to our north and west. We'll still have a slight chance of seeing a few strong storms, so we'll monitor it closely. Cooler weather will move in behind the storm system by the end of the week, and it should stay cool over the weekend. There is some indication that even colder air will move back into the area late next week. Get out and enjoy the warmth while it lasts!
