Synopsis: A ridge of high pressure will move over the state on Monday and bring fair and dry weather to the areas. A weak warm front could bring light showers to some areas on Tuesday. A significant low-pressure system will ride up the coast and impact the state from Wednesday through Friday and bring significant rainfall for those three days. Strong Northwest winds will keep temperatures below normal for Thursday and Friday behind the system.

The ridge of high pressure moving into the area on monday will bring dry area to the mid and upper levels of the atmosphere and keep the atmosphere relatively dry, causing plenty of sunshine for Monday. The models are in agreement about the timing of the low-pressure system that moves in on Wednesday.
