High clouds currently moving across the area this morning will push on east later this morning as a weak upper level trof moves into the state. This feature will kick up the wind a bit for a breezy afternoon. Highs similar to yesterday. Slight cooler on Saturday with above mentioned trof moving into New Mexico.

Warmer Sunday and Monday under weak ridging aloft. Some uncertainty after Tuesday on timing of next Pacific trof to move through the desert southwest. This system, when it moves through, will bring a round of gusty winds and cooler high temperature.
