An Amazing Warm Spell on the Way!

A large area of high pressure is centered over the Delmarva Peninsula this evening. Southwest winds along the west side of the high brought dry mild air from the plains into the upper midwest on Saturday. Temperatures responded very nicely, and jumped into the unseasonably mild low 60's on Saturday afternoon. The winds have this evening, but will maintain 10 to 15 mph levels ovenight keeping temperatures from dropping any llower than the upper 30's.  The average low for this time of year is in the middle 20's. The high will continue to dominate Stateline weather on Sunday morning under sunny skies.  Southerly winds will not be as brisk as they were on Saturday, but it will be unseasonably mild with a high in the middle 60's. A developing low pressure are over east Texas will move to a position near Kansas City by Sunday evening. Clouds will increase during the afternoon, and rain showers will be likely Sunday night. There is a slight chance of thunderstorms, too. It will be very mild overnight with a low in the upper 40's. The low will continue to move northeast on Monday located near Minneapolis early in the day, and Iron Mountain, Michigan by Monday evening.   An lingering showers will come to an end. It will become partly cloudy. No cold air will follow in behind the departing low, and the high on Monday will be around 64 degrees.  A bubble of high pressure will follow in behind the departing system on Tuesday providing the Stateline with sunshine along with afternoon temperatures near 70 degrees.  Wednesday looks even warmer with a high in the low 70's.  The unseasonably warm, May like, temperatures will continue through Friday with a slight drop next weekend.  There will be chances of showers and thunderstorms on Wednesday night,  and again from Thursday night off and on through Saturday.
