We've been very quiet in the weather department the past couple of weeks but that could all be changing by this time next week. A cutoff low in southern California will begin to move east and into the Great Lakes by this weekend. As it does, it will get caught up in the main jetstream and weaken some but still be able to draw in enough moisture from the Gulf of Mexico to produce a few showers Saturday and Sunday.
The beginning of next week, however, could prove to be a little more active. Very strong winds in the jetstream, roughly around 150 mph, will come crashing into the west and help dig out a trough across the central Plains. This will lead to a cold front sweeping through sometime during the Tuesday timeframe (assuming all things come together within the next week). If this scenario holds true we could very well see a nice warm up early followed by thunderstorms sometime Tuesday/Wednesday and then a cool down by the end of next week. Talk about one roller-coaster of a ride.
