Thanks to a little bit of sunshine, most Stateline locales were able to reach the low 40s Sunday afternoon. This upward swing comes days after a long-lasting Arctic blast and days before we turn the page to meteorological spring.
This milder stretch of weather will continue into the beginning of the work week, leaving afternoon highs near the 50° mark. Compared to how last week began, this is a significant improvement as high temperatures came in roughly 40° cooler. We were also discussing the likelihood for well-below zero chills.
Today's west-southwesterly breeze will have a lot to do with today's warm up as clouds will be present for most of the day. Not too far behind will be our next round of precipitation as a weak wave disturbance into the western Great Lakes. Nothing too significant as this evening's chance will be in the form of scattered sprinkles and light showers, with the best chance being before midnight. Conditions then dry out into Tuesday as high pressure settles to our south. This will leave us partly cloudy and mild for Tuesday afternoon, with highs landing close to the 50° mark once again.
A secondary chance for rain arrives Tuesday night into Wednesday. This will feature a
bit more widespread activity compared to the system sliding through this evening. Again, any rain we
see will be light in nature, though a few
spots may pick up a couple tenths of an inch of rain where showers are
steady. Rain showers may linger into the morning commute hours Wednesday,
with a slim chance for a brief round of flurries or light snow mixing in
Wednesday evening. Afternoon highs will reach the upper 40s Wednesday
afternoon.
