Another Frosty Start to a Fabulous Day

Canadian high pressure, sitting over Illinois this morning, was responsible for another cold frosty start to the day.   Overnight low temperatures were pretty much the same as last night. With the high shifting gradually off to the south and moderating, temperatures will top out near seasonal averages this afternoon under full sunshine.  A blocking upper high is also locking in place across the middle part of the country, and it will not allow any significant frontal systems to pass through our area for the next week. There will be a weak front that drops through the area late Wednesday, but it is not expected to have much of an impact on our weather or much on temperatures. The Gulf of Mexico is cut off, so the front will not have a significant moisture to work with, and will pass through as a dry front with just a few clouds on Wednesday night.  After today the rest of the week through the weekend will have afternoon temperatures ranging from the low to middle 70's with lots of sunshine.
