It will be warmer Tuesday with temperatures reaching the low 40s and melting snow packs. High winds, between 11 and 15 mph will continue until the evening, when wind speeds will slow to between 6 and 9 mph. More fog may be likely into Wednesday morning.

Patchy fog will cover the area before 9 a.m. on Wednesday, the NWS said. The afternoon high will be 44 degrees. A chance for rain returns later in the afternoon and into Wednesday evening. Overnight lows will fall to around 27 degrees.
