Tracking strong winds as storms clear out tonight

TONIGHT: Gradually decreasing clouds with lows in the upper 50s. Gusty winds topping out near 40 mph.

TOMORROW: Mostly sunny and breezy with highs in the lower to mid-70s with gusty west winds.

EXTENDED: Scattered storms have developed along a dry line moving eastward this afternoon, and they will continue racing east-northeast through mid-evening before clearing our area between 7-9 p.m. Some storms could be severe with large hail, 60 mph winds, and a few tornadoes. A cold front moves in overnight, bringing a slight cool down for tomorrow and continued gusty winds with low pressure sliding by to our north. Highs on Wednesday top in the lower to mid-70s with a breezy west wind. Our next round of rain moves in on Thursday as another area of low pressure tracks by. Rain amounts generally stay under 0.5" but temperatures will cool even further by Friday and the weekend as highs get into the low 60s. We stay dry over the weekend with a gradual warm up returning early next week.
