The marine layer is back and overcast skies remain the weather pattern through Friday. As onshore flow strengthens, temperatures cool. Highs rise into the 50 and 60s, about a 10 degree temperature drop from prior days. A small system from the south will approach later Wednesday afternoon. Timing may be tough as models struggle with these types of storms, however rainfall is set under a tenth of an inch. Impact will be minimal, just expect on and off light rain into Thursday morning. High surf may be a problem for west facing beaches, however no High Surf Advisories issued.

Thursday afternoon will crank up another round of thunderstorms. As we are in the wake of the smaller system, daytime heating along with instability will cause large cells to develop over mountainous terrain and could cross over our cities. Heavy rain is possible, but thunderstorms will move so fast that impacts will be dismal.

We may see a pop up Thunderstorm Friday afternoon as well, however most data shows a drying and clearing trend. Expect a few more hours of sunshine and temperatures to rise a degree or so. Marine clouds will fill the skies every morning this weekend but clear quickly. High pressure moves back in next week, meaning long range forecast will be warm and dry. Most areas rise back into the low 70s by Saturday.

A powerful winter storm is poised to hammer the eastern half of the US with heavy snow and dangerous ice later this week. Fueled by a brutal Arctic blast, it’s also set to deliver the season’s coldest air yet to millions of Americans.

Here’s what else you need to know to get up to speed and on with your day.

1⃣ Greenland takeover

President Donald Trump is expected to address the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, today. His trip was delayed on Tuesday after a technical issue forced Air Force One to turn back to the US shortly after takeoff. In Davos, Trump is set to face world leaders who are pushing back against his threats to take Greenland. Sources tell CNN that European leaders are weighing possible off-ramps to appease Trump, including an expanded military presence in Greenland, new commercial and economic agreements, and restrictions on Chinese investments in the territory. Trump, however, has warned that there is no turning back on his pursuit to take the island.

2⃣ Usha Vance pregnancy

Second lady Usha Vance and Vice President JD Vance are expecting a baby this summer, the couple announced Tuesday. “We’re very excited to share the news that Usha is pregnant with our fourth child, a boy,” they said in a joint statement posted to social media. The pregnancy marks the first time a sitting second lady has had a baby while in office, though it’s not without precedent for first ladies. Usha Vance, 40, left her job as a high-profile public lawyer when her husband became President Trump’s second in command, and she has appeared frequently by his side over the course of his first year in office.

3⃣ Immigration crackdown

The Trump administration is accusing Minnesota’s Democratic leaders of blocking their attempts to carry out immigration enforcement. On Tuesday, the Justice Department issued subpoenas to at least five top Minnesota officials, including Gov. Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey. The subpoenas are part of an investigation into whether state and local officials obstructed federal immigration enforcement efforts, sources say. This comes as President Trump has raised the prospect of deploying a military presence to Minnesota under the Insurrection Act — an extraordinary step that would almost certainly face immediate legal challenges.

4⃣ Train crashes

A second rail disaster has rocked Spain, following a deadly high-speed train crash that killed dozens just days ago. On Tuesday, a commuter train derailed in Gelida, near Barcelona, killing the driver and injuring 37 people. The derailment was caused when a retaining wall fell onto the tracks following heavy rains, local officials said. The incident occurred two ⁠days after two high-speed trains collided near Adamuz in the southern Córdoba province, killing 41 people. Both incidents remain under investigation.
