[ Tuesday, Dec. 10, 2002 ]
An area of high pressure will continue to dominate over the region today continuing the sunny, cold conditions. Clouds will begin to fill the skies over the region tonight as a low pressure system moves up the coast. For midweek, expect cloudy skies with a chance of precipitation. There will be a slight break before the next system approaches for the weekend. As the system that moves through midweek exits to the northeast expect temperatures to return to more seasonable levels with temperatures in the upper 30’s to the low 40’s.
