A warm and muggy start to our work week with temperatures in the upper 70's to low 80's this morning. Dew points are in the low 70's too, and this will only intensify the heat as we go through the day, bringing heat indices into the mid 90's for some spots this afternoon. However, a relief is on the way, so we don't have to deal with the warm, humid weather much longer.
As we go through the day, a weak frontal boundary will move through the Stateline area. A cold front sits to the east, but there's plenty of heat and moisture lingering behind it, along with the small frontal boundary.
This small boundary will allow for some isolated thunderstorms mid-day, with clouds increasing through late morning. Other than the isolated storms mid-day, we stay dry heading into the afternoon, with skies gradually clearing heading into the evening.
Once we get into late evening, a high pressure system will begin tracking towards our area from the northwest. This will push some cool, dry air into our area, drastically lowering our humidity and cooling our temperatures as well. We'll eventually cool to the low 60's overnight, with low humidity lasting through the overnight as well, so be ready to open those windows!
That high stays close-by for Tuesday and Wednesday, allowing for plenty of sunshine with cooler temperatures around 80°, all while keeping the low humidity.
Thunderstorms will return to the area though once we get to Thursday, some of which may be on the strong side. This may cause some issues for those of you heading out to Country Thunder later this week.
However, other than Thursday the weather's looking good for Country Thunder, as temperatures will be in the upper 70's! Humidity will stay low too, so enjoy the nice weather at the event or any other area of the Stateline this weekend.
