By Brian McCready

WILTON, CT — It may have been late in arriving but at least spring decided to show up after all.

Monday’s temps would even pass for a great summer day. Hopefully, you can get outside and enjoy it.

There is a chance of some showers at the end of the week and into the first part of the weekend, but overall the forecast is a really good one.

One concern today is the National Weather Service says there is an elevated fire weather potential today due to warmer temps and a dry airmass currently, but winds will be lighter today, which is good news.

Here is the latest forecast details via the National Weather Service:

• Monday: Sunshine, upper 70s in northern Connecticut and low 70s at the Shoreline.
• Monday night: Slight shower chance, temps around 50 degrees.
