We “spring forward” on Sunday, March 10th at 2am- losing an hour of sleep, but gaining an hour of daylight at the end of the day as the sun will set at 7:10pm on Sunday evening.

With our longer days we’ll enjoy some warmer temperatures later in the week. While Sunday will be a chilly day with highs in the mid 40s, we begin to warm up a bit on Monday with temperatures reaching the low to mid 50s before the real warm-up begins.

As of now, Tuesday looks like we will see highs in the upper 60s with plenty of sunshine. We should hit 70° on Wednesday, with mostly sunny skies, and then the mid to upper 70s on Thursday for another beautiful day. Friday will see some clouds, but temperatures should still reach the 70s and the weekend should start warm (upper 60s) with rain and cooler temps (50s) moving in on Sunday.
