Spring fever is in full force today! High temperatures are forecast to climb 20° above the average for this time of year! Mostly sunny skies and a southwest breeze will help temperatures climb into the upper 50's and low 60's by this afternoon. And as we know, the days have been getting longer and longer, so we get to enjoy the sun through almost 5:45pm this evening!
Unfortunately the warmth won't last, as our next system will bring cooler temperatures and a chance for rain and potentially winter like weather. Low pressure will develop over the Oklahoma pan handle and will lift over northern Missouri and over central Illinois. The heaviest rain potential will stay south of the Stateline on Wednesday, but we can't rule out light showers Wednesday morning and then overnight into Thursday morning. Temperatures will fall on Thursday behind the departing low, which could allow for the rain to change over to a mix or even all snow. This could bring relatively minor accumulations to the Stateline. With fairly warm temperatures, the snow would be a slushy heavy type snow, that could bring slick roads through Thursday.
The good news is, sunshine and mild temperatures return Friday!
