If you stepped outside today, you felt how windy it was, and tomorrow will be a lot like today. That's because the current pattern won't change much in the next couple of days. There is a strong low pressure system that is spinning to the northeast near the upper great lakes, combined with a high pressure across the plains. This creates a tight pressure gradient, or a big change in pressure in a short distance, and in turn creates windy conditions in between the two systems.
That tight gradient created wind gusts close to 40mph, and sustained winds near 30mph. This will also be the case fore tomorrow, winds will continue to increase through the afternoon, with gusts up to 40mph possible in the afternoon. The low is also bringing in colder Canadian air, so temperatures this week will be about ten degrees below were we should be. Overnight lows will be chilly as well, falling very close to, if not below freezing. The low pressure system will slowly lift to the northeast in the next few days, so temperatures will warm to the 60s with more sun by the end of the week.
