Wednesday afternoon weather forecast with Meteorologist Lena Maria Arango
In the wake of yesterday's storm system, high pressure will take over leading to several quiet, but chilly days. Come Saturday, an unsettled pattern does look to take over through the middle of next week. Look for several gray, and on/off rainy days until possibly Wednesday as multiple disturbances move their way across the area. A front looks to clear next Wednesday, which would break us out of that pattern.
