Temperatures on Friday will be warmer than average, with highs in the low-to-mid 50s in lower elevations and mid-to-upper 40s in the mountains. There will be a gusty southwest breeze Friday in addition to the rain, so plan on having a rain jacket and umbrella.

After a day with temperatures in the 40s across the area, we will continue to warm up heading into Wednesday. However, the main concern for Wednesday will be strong winds developing through the morning and into the afternoon.
