Is There Any Warmth in Our Future?

While the weather this weekend looks cool there may be a slight warm up heading into the middle of next week.  Yesterday it looked as if temperatures would remain below average through the remainder of April but this morning one of our weather models is hinting at the possibility of 70s by next Tuesday.  While I'm not completely sold on this yet, it isn't out of the question.  Another area of low pressure will develop Monday lifting a warm front through Illinois Monday night.  Just how far north the warm front makes it is still in question.  The GFS model pushes the front north of the Wisconsin/Illinois border allowing temperatures to rise into the low 70s before swinging a cold front through.  The European model keeps the front to our south with the low in northern Missouri and temperatures in the 50s. 
I'm tempted to side a little more with the European model since this past week it has had a fairly good track record, but it sure would be nice to see the 70s again.  Either way it does look like rain will be a definite during that time frame.
