Today we saw some light drizzles, but nothing more than that. The skies stayed overcast with a light northerly wind as the system of low pressure moved out of the area. Tomorrow does have a fairly high chance of rain, but after that the chance of rain will lessen. Temperatures will probably stay around the same as they were today (low to mid 50s).

As you can see in figure 2, we are still situated in a trough from the jet stream. If temperatures are forecasted to stay the same, I'm guessing this means the jet stream will stay in roughly this pattern through the weekend. Once it straightens out, we should start to see some warmer temperatures.
