Temperatures are starting off near the freezing mark this morning as areas of patchy dense fog develop. Temperatures will warm into the low to mid 50s in the early afternoon ahead of another cold front in the late afternoon. Outside of a stray mixed shower, this will be a mainly dry front, but have a bigger impact on our temperatures.
With an abnormally warm and wet start to spring, growing seasons have already begun. Due to this, a Freeze Warning will be in effect overnight into Tuesday morning as temperatures forecast to drop into the mid 20s with wind chill values as chilly as 1520. While we see a quiet, dry and sunny day, itll be unseasonably cool with highs in the mid 40s.
Were watching for a midweek weather system that will bring a rain chance Wednesday, especially in the evening into Thursday morning. Models are forecasting an additional 0.50.75 of rainfall possible through those two days.

In 2015, Sarah Levy and Tim Rozons Schitts Creek characters, Twyla Sands and Mutt Schitt, dated in the Canadian comedys first season.
A decade later, the actors are starring in the third season of paranormal series SurrealEstate, as two real estate agents who specialize in selling metaphysically engaged properties aka haunted houses.
I think what Season 3 has done so well is carry on Season 1 and Season 2, the excitement of both those seasons, as well as the emotional cornerstones that the first two seasons had and the care of the characters, Levy said. What I love so much about this show is that its a scifi show there are supernatural elements to it but its so characterdriven.
New episodes of SurrealEstate air Thursdays at 10 p.m. ET on SyFy and stream the next day on Peacock.
