High pressure will build in, providing a cool northwester flow of air, holding afternoon temperatures to the 60s. The milky haze the past few days is the result of smoke from the Canadian wildfires filtering southeast and diffusing the sun’s rays.
Tonight will bring mostly clear skies, which may allow for a view of the northern lights created by a major (G4) geomagnetic storm early on June 1, but only if the smoke clears. Morning readings will dip to the chilly mid-40s.
A warm front will lift north across the state on Monday, as winds turn southerly, bringing summer-like conditions. A stray shower is possible later in the day over the western half of the state.
Temperatures will rise into the mid- to upper 80s midweek, before a cold front pushes in from the west with showers and a few storms Thursday and Friday.
