Active Pattern to Continue

While it's nice to see a little bit of a break in the stormy weather pattern it will quickly return starting tonight and last pretty much into next week.  We are still under the influence of high pressure this morning but a warm front to the southwest may "rain on our parade" later this afternoon if storms hold together.  The warm front will lift to the north later today with stronger storms developing through parts of the Plains, Minnesota and Iowa.  As the evening progresses, the storms will likely form into a cluster of storms and move east overnight and possibly into the Stateline early Friday morning.  If that's the case heavy rain and damaging winds would be likely.  The storms, however, may take more of a southeast track which would leave us dry for the morning.  Once the initial storms move out - another round is anticipated Friday afternoon/evening with the cold front coming through.  We are under a slight risk for severe weather Friday afternoon.  While temperatures and humidity values will rise through the day adding to the instability, we may be somewhat capped initially so we may not see storms develop until later in the evening.  Then if that weren't enough, the front will stall to the south over the next and wobble back and forth giving us storm chances straight on into next week.
