High pressure will finally begin to weaken this weekend, allowing a stronger onshore flow to generate gusty west winds and cooler temperatures next week. A low-pressure system will slide through the area around the middle of next week, bringing a few showers to the region. Expect nice spring weather throughout the weekend as daytime highs top out in the upper 60s to near 70 degrees, while overnight lows remain in the 30s. Westerly winds will persist 15-15 mph at times with gusts to 25 mph during the afternoons. High pressure will exit to the east on Monday as a trough of low pressure deepens off the West Coast. Highs will drop back into the 60s with gusty west winds continuing. As this system swings inland through the region on Tuesday, clouds and winds will increase with scattered showers possible into Wednesday. This is a relatively weak system, and rainfall amounts should generally remain under a tenth of an inch with the snow level above 8,000 feet with just a dusting of snow possible across the higher elevations. Seasonal weather will return later in the week, with dry conditions currently forecast for Easter weekend!
