The cooler weather has settled in for the next few days and to go along with the chill will be the daily chance for a few sprinkles/light rain showers. The first of which arrived this afternoon and evening. Locally the precipitation hasn't been much, as most of the steady rain has fallen north of the state line in Wisconsin, but a few sprinkles and light rain showers have dotted the skies across southern Wisconsin and northern Illinois over the last few hours. You can see one of those showers on our SkyTrack camera in Beloit, WI.
The precipitation will come to an end as the sun sets Wednesday evening, leading to partly cloudy skies overnight. As the wind eases tonight the potential for some patchy frost will be possible, especially where temperatures are able to drop into the low to mid 30s.
Temperatures Thursday will once again struggle to make it above the mid/upper 50s under partly sunny skies. Northwest flow within the jet stream will send a few upper-level disturbances our direction, with the next one expected Thursday afternoon. Similar to Wednesday, this will give us a chance for some light precipitation during the afternoon and early evening. Rainfall amounts are not expected to be much - adding up to just under a tenth of an inch - but you may need the jacket or umbrella for a brief time Thursday afternoon.
As the sun sets Thursday night skies will clear out once again allowing temperatures to drop into the low to mid 30s. Patchy frost will be possible early Friday, followed by the chance for some scattered precipitation Friday afternoon. Highs will remain in the mid-50s.
High pressure moving in Friday night will give us a better chance for some widespread frost going into Saturday as temperatures area wide drop back into the low 30s.
