Cloudy start and end to Friday




 

Cloud cover has been pretty thick so far Friday morning and this has held temperatures in the middle 30's.  We'll stay in the 30's through the morning, but the clouds are expected to break up some going into the afternoon.  This should get temperatures into the low 40's, but winds will remain gusty from the northwest providing the chill through the afternoon.
Low pressure moving out of the High Plains will
track through Iowa and central Illinois later this evening and tonight.  As it does, showers and thunderstorms are expected across the southern Plains and lower Mississippi River Valley while light snow could fall as close as I-88 tonight.  While we're not expecting anything closer to home, some in southern Lee and DeKalb counties could have a few flurries dot the skies by early Saturday morning.  I do anticipate clouds to start the day Saturday which will slow the temperatures rise a bit, but high pressure will move in during the afternoon helping to clear away the cloud cover.  Highs Saturday will be in the low to middle 40's.
