Like the Middle of Summer Sunday through Tuesday....

High pressure, which has been the dominate weathermaker for the Stateline for the past several days, is shifting slowly off to the east.  It will still be close enough by to keep our skies clear overnight, and sunny on Sunday.  With a warm southerly wind developing on Sunday, temperatures will soar to an unseasonably warm 90 degrees.  The average high is 78 degrees.  With the southerly airflow perstisting Monday into Tuesday moisture levels will increase, and dew points will rise making concitions more uncomfortable with high's still very warm.... in the upper 80's.  With a slow moving cold front approaching, scattered thunderstorms may develop on Tuesday afternoon, and become more likely Tuesday night and Wednesday.  The front will stall out on Wednesday night, across the Stateline, continuing the chances of thunderstorms overnight into Thursday morning.  Drier air is expected to be moving into the area on Thursday afternoon diminishing chances of any more showers.  High pressure will take full control of area weather on Thursday night clearing skies, and dropping temperatures back down into the upper 50's.  Friday and Saturday will be dominated by a ridge of high pressure sliding across the area with sunny skies and comfortable temperatures in the mid to upper 70's.
