[ Monday, Dec. 9, 2002 ]
The new work week looks uneventful for weather. Sunshine will warm the temperatures for a little bit, while nights will continue to be cold under mostly clear skies. Thanks to a large area of high pressure centered to the west, this mild weather will be sticking around for the rest of the week. Skies may become cloudy towards the end of the week through the weekend. This is when the next low pressure system will most likely be making its way through the area.
