Tracking a warm-up on the way
MONDAY
Clouds will be tough to shake completely, but we'll squeeze in enough sunshine to help things out. Highs will top out in the low to mid 50's this afternoon, despite a chilly start.
TONIGHT
Those stubborn clouds will come in handy tonight. Temperatures will be slow to cool off, only bottoming out in the low 40's.
EXTENDED
Things will warm up on Tuesday, despite the continued cloud cover. Highs will approach 70 by the afternoon thanks to a stout southerly breeze. We'll stay dry during the day, but showers and storms will push in overnight, some of which could be strong. Strong winds and some small hail will be the biggest concerns, west of HWY 63. Rain will continue into Wednesday, adding up to about an inch before tapering off Wednesday night. It'll be much cooler on the other side of this system on Thursday, with highs falling back into the 40's. We'll start to rebound into the weekend, with temperatures warming into the 50's on Friday, where they'll hold through the weekend. We'll need to watch a system meandering through the Midwest Friday night into Saturday morning, which could bring some more showers.
