It took a while to get things to warm up this morning, but we still managed to make it to the low and mid-50s this afternoon. A south wind is beginning to blow increasing moisture into the area. That’ll mean some more cloudiness heading into tonight, and eventually even some humidity you might feel tomorrow. Also, some showers will be a growing threat as a cold front approaches, but most of that should hold off until after dark tomorrow.

       Through tonight: The full moon will be rising with the sunset, so it’ll be making a big appearance in the eastern sky this evening. You may want to get out to see it early while skies are still rather clear. With a good deal of clouds around overnight, temperatures will stay in the near-40 to mid-40s range.

       Tomorrow (Thursday): It’ll be a quick taste of spring. Skies will be mostly to partly cloudy throughout the day. A feisty wind will be from the south, drawing in moisture; it will be sustained around 10 to 20 mph, with gusts around 30 mph. Highs should reach the mid-60s to around 70. I think most of the day will be dry, but we could see some showers around as soon as sunset. They’re more likely into the night, along with even gustier winds.

       As winter and spring clash, multiple types of hazardous weather will blast large parts of the Lower 48 through Friday

       Pollen update: It might be too soon to notice, but tree pollen has been showing up in the daily pollen report of late. Today’s value was up to 0.96 grains per cubic meter of air, which was up from 0.32 grains with yesterday’s report. Still very low values, but confirmation that spring is coming.
