Great Way to Wrap up September!

The Stateline had a fabulous day to start the last weekend of September. The high on Saturday  reached 83 degrees at the Rockford airport, which was 10 degrees above average for the date. Not only were the temperatures very nice,  the humidity was low, and the winds were light from the north.  It will be clear and seasonal overnight with a low in the middle 40's. Somewhat cooler air will push across the area from the northeast on Sunday. It will still be a very nice day with sunshine, and an afternoon high around 70 degrees.  The high pressure ridge will continue it's presence across the area Sunday night and Monday with overnight lows in the 40's and highs in the low 70's.  A weak ridge of high pressure will continue through Wednesday.  Temperatures are expected to warm into the upper 70's on Wednesday in advance of a strong cold front dropping toward the southeast out of the northern plains.  There could be some showers on Thursday with the passage of the front.  A sprawling area of Canadian high pressure will follow in behind the front. High temperatures on Friday and Saturday will only be in the low to middle 50's, and low temperatures will be down in the 30's.
