High temperatures jump back above average for the rest of the 7-day
TUESDAY: After a cool start to the day temperatures will rise back above freezing by this afternoon. Clouds will clear out allowing for sunny skies this afternoon as high temperatures rise into the mid 40s. There will be a slight breeze out of the west up to 10 mph.
TONIGHT: Winds will shift out of the south which will allow overnight lows to be a tad warmer under mostly clear skies. Although, it will be cold by morning as lows drop towards 30 with wind chills in the mid 20s for the morning commute.
EXTENDED: As southerly winds remain in place thanks to a building ridge, the upper 50s will return by the end of the work week. Windy conditions will also be present Friday, as our next system begins to take shape. Friday afternoon highs will reach towards 60. Late Friday evening into Saturday morning, another cold front will track through the region and bring a slight chance of rain through the overnight hours into Saturday morning. The best chance looks to be along and south of I-44. Most areas will receive less than .25″, but our southeastern counties could see as much as .50″. As the rain comes to an end, we’ll see a return to cooler conditions, with overnight lows back in the teens and 20s, with afternoon highs in the low 40s by Sunday. The start of next week looks dry with highs in the 40s on Monday, accompanied by a warming trend into the middle of the work week.
