...VERY WARM MOTHERS DAY EXPECTED ACROSS MUCH OF THE REGION...

High pressure will remain over the region this weekend. During that
time, offshore flow will contribute to boost daytime temperatures,
with many areas reaching well into the 80s, and even the lower 90s
in spots. With our current forecast, this could be one of the
warmest Mothers Days on record for some locations. Averages for
Mothers Day are in the upper 60s inland, and 55 to 65 on the coast.

Below are the current forecast, record warmest, and recent warmer
Mothers Days (MD) for select locations across our local area.
