A Cool Week on the Way for the Stateline
It was another breezy day courtesy of the massive spinning storm center over southern Hudson Bay. High pressure over South Dakota will move to western Iowa by 6 am on Monday morning. Skies will be clear overnight, and it will be chilly with an overnight low dropping into the middle to upper 30's. It will be breezy enough to preclude the development of any frost. On Monday it will start out sunny, and become partly cloudy during the afternoon as the high pressure weakens. It will be on the cool with a high in the upper 50's along with breezy conditions again in the afternoon. On Monday night a surface low pressure area will traverse from northwestern Arkansas to the the southern tip of Illinois, so that on Tuesday it will increase clouds over northern Illinois, and give the Stateline a slight chance of light rain showers. The scattered light showers will linger into Wednesday as low pressure consolidates, and intensifies from eastern Kentucky to the Virginia coast. As the system intensifies, a strong northerly wind flow will develop across the Stateline on Wednesday. The temperature will be hard pressed to rise above 50 degrees. It will be cold on Wednesday night with Canadian high pressure ridging from Hudson Bay across Minnesota, Iowa Missouri, into a center over Arkansas, and then southward into the Gulf of Mexico. It will be mostly clear and cold on Wednesday night with a low in the lower 30's (33 degrees), but there should be enough of a breeze to prevent much frost. It will be clear and cold on Thursday night as the center of the high moves to Tennessee. The wind could easily go to calm on Wednesday night, so heavy widespread frost, and a hard freeze are possible. Friday will be sunny and continued cool with a high around 57 degrees. It will be mostly sunny and warmer on Saturday with a high near 60 degrees.
