Strong winds have been a big story line in the weather department the past few days, and they'll continue to be a key story as we approach the weekend.
Similar to yesterday, winds won't be as strong as the day prior. However, with a "bubble" of high pressure sliding to the east of the region, winds will blow more out of the southwest today. That, along with a partly cloudy sky will allow high temperatures to surge out of the 30s and into the low 40s.
Warm, Windy Friday:
Temperatures Friday morning will end up warmer, landing in the upper 20s. With the milder beginning, increasing southwesterly wind, and partial sun, the stage is set for an unseasonably warm afternoon with highs hovering around the 60°. IF we are able to hit that mark, it would be the 4th time this year that Rockford has observed 60° weather.
Now, winds will pack a punch to round out the work week as a cold front approaches. At times, we could see winds upwards of 35 mph. This wind will change to the north and northeast once the cold front sweeps through, resulting in a cooler weekend. Temperatures will fall back into the low 30s Saturday and may even struggle to exit the 20s on Sunday.
