THIS AFTERNOON: Mostly sunny and breezy with highs in the upper 60s.

TONIGHT: Mostly cloudy with a few spotty showers. Lows in the upper 40s to low 50s.

EXTENDED: Gusty winds stick around today, but clouds increase ahead of a cold front that could bring a few showers late tonight into tomorrow morning. We'll be mild to start out Friday with morning lows ranging from the upper 40s north to the low 50s south. The afternoon will be beautiful with highs near 70 degrees and sunshine. We'll start the weekend off chilly with morning temperatures near 40 with increasing clouds throughout the day. We could see a few light showers north of I-70 as low pressure moves by to our north, and temperatures will begin dropping throughout the day as an arctic air mass slides in over the Great Lakes. Sunday morning will be cold with lows in the upper 20s to low 30s, with highs only reaching near 40. Monday will be the coldest morning of the season with morning temperatures in the upper teens to low 20s. We'll start the week off cold with highs in the lower 40s. Temperatures begin to level out by Tuesday as the upper pattern flattens out, with temperatures closer to our seasonal average.
