Rainy and Windy Sunday

A strong storm system over southeastern Missouri will move across to central Illinois tonight, and across northern Indiana on Sunday bringing showers, and some rumbles of thunder before midnight, and rain after midnight tonight. Sunday will be a rainy, windy, and cooler day with temperatures struggling to get above the low 50's. Winds will be brisk from northeast 15 to 25 mph tonight with gusts to 30 mph tonight, and shift to more northerly on Sunday. Rain showers will gradually come to an end Sunday night as the low continues to pull away toward northwestern Ohio by early Monday morning. There will be some weak ridging across the area on Monday, allowing for skies to become partly sunny, but a disturbance moving in from the west coast could cause some isolated showers on Monday afternoon into Monday evening. Tuesday is expected to start off partly cloudy, but become mostly sunny as high pressure ridges back into the area from the plains and Canada.  Skies look to be sunny with the high pressure shifting east across the area on Wednesday.  By Thursday morning a fairly strong southerly winds will develop as a new weather system begins to move eastward across the plains. With a warm front to our southwest there may be enough lift to generate some scattered showers on Thursday into Thursday evening. On Friday the warm front will lift northward across the Stateline lifting temperatures into the low 70s, and kicking up some thunderstorms that will persist off and on through Friday evening when the cold front will move through shutting down the precipitation.
