We have a new champion atop the leaderboard of warmest days this year! Today's high temperature in Rockford topped out at 79! Unfortunately, we don't have any days that will crack the top 5 over the next few days with a cold front passing overnight.
That's because of a very sharp drop in temperatures between Saturday and Sunday. An overnight cold front will bring a change by more than 30 degrees from one afternoon to the next. Sunday's high will only top out at 49, but that may likely be reached prior to 10AM.
Ahead of the front, temperatures will remain very mild in the 50s through early morning, keeping us very mild. But behind the front, temperatures will fall through the afternoon and evening, reaching the low 40s by sunset. This also comes with a strong North-Northeast wind gusting upwards of 25 mph at times. It will come as quite a chill compared to Saturday's nearly 80-degree mark!
A few pockets of light rain or drizzle may be possible from late-morning through afternoon, but any rainfall will not amount to much. Any locations that see rain will only see a few hundredths of an inch of rain at the most. High pressure slides in for Monday, clearing us out and keeping the chill around. But another push of mild air arrives mid-week with more 50s on the way!
