We had some thick fog out this morning, but that has since cleared out. Light rain is tracking east across the Stateline, but is dying down and will clear out around mid day. Skies will be mostly cloudy, but it'll be a little less cloudy along the state line itself, so this would be the best viewing area for the eclipse at 1:16pm. Also, storm chances kick in around 1pm for our southern counties, which is another reason to go north for the eclipse as well.
We are under a Slight Risk for severe weather for the late afternoon into the evening. The earliest we could see strong thunderstorms is 4:00pm, but the chances will increase during the evening. The main threats will be strong winds and damaging hail, so be sure to get your cars inside if possible because the hail may cause significant damage. The storms will linger during the late night hours, but the severity will go down as we progress through the overnight. The cold front will move around 7am tomorrow morning.
You'll definitely want to keep an eye out for weather updates during the afternoon, because the eclipse may impact whether or not we see storms during the afternoon and evening, as temperatures will fluctuate during the eclipse.
After the front moves out, high pressure will move in to bring us cooler and drier weather for the rest of the week. Temperatures will be in the upper 70°s to low 80°s this week, with the possibility of seeing the mid 70°s in the next couple of days.
