The summits will begin under cloudy skies today due to on shore flow, but conditions will improve this afternoon as weak high pressure builds in from the west. This will be short lived however, as an upper level trough developing to our west will cause clouds to build back in and bring some rain or snow showers tonight into tomorrow. Short wave troughs will continue to rotate around this low, keeping the possibility of showers through much of next week.
