Up and Down Temperatures this Week

Temperatures this week will be up and down thanks to how the jet stream is positioned over the Midwest and Great Lakes.  Winds will be coming in from the Northwest, allowing quick moving low pressure systems to sweep down from Canada.  With each low that passes, southerly winds ahead of the low will bring temperatures up, but northerly winds behind the low will knock temperatures right back down.

Gulf moisture will remain limited so as each storm system moves through, skies will most likely remain dry.  There might be a few light rain showers during the day Friday, but even those look to remain relatively limited at this point.

Even though temperatures will warm up ahead of each passing low, highs will still remain below average in the 40's and 50's.  Average highs should be in the low 60's.  We may begin to see a little more of a warming trend towards the beginning of next - with highs back in the 60's.
