The western half of the province is expected to be partly cloudy and cool to cold with isolated showers and thundershowers, but scattered along the coast and adjacent interior, where it will be cloudy. The eastern half will be partly cloudy in the north, otherwise cloudy and cool to cold with isolated showers and thundershowers, but scattered south of the escarpment.
