A weak warm front from the southwest will lift across the state today as a weak low moves northward along the coast. These two weather features will make for a cloudy day overhead as most summits move in and out of the fog. The moist flow and slight instability caused by the passing weather features will also be enough to produce some light upslope drizzle and showers through the day today. Overnight and into Thursday, low pressure from the Great Lakes will lift northeast, dragging a cold front eastward. This incoming front will allow for upslope fog to return to the summit as numerous showers spread in across the state.
