Cooler air will filter in overnight with morning temperatures dropping into the mid and upper 50s Wednesday. Patchy clouds will roll through though we should still see a fair bit of sunshine. Temperatures will be quite a bit cooler than the past few days, afternoon highs topping out in the upper 60s and low 70s. That puts us much closer to average for this time of year.

Even chillier weather is expected later this week as highs dip into the upper 50s and low 60s for Friday and Saturday. We may even see our first chance for frost Friday night or Saturday night as low temperatures try to dip into the upper 30s. This should not be a killing freeze, but it will certainly feel pretty chilly leading into the weekend. Temperatures rebound back into the 70s by Sunday, and potentially make a run back at 80s degrees next week.
