Tuesday was characterized by scattered showers and abundant cloud cover limiting afternoon highs to the low 70s for most. Along a cold front this evening, we may see another isolated shower or storm develop through 8PM. Most of the area will remain dry, however. Winds will pick up right behind the front, gusting near 30 mph at times out of the Northwest. As skies clear late in the evening, temperatures will drop down toward the upper 40s.

Temperatures will only rebound into the mid-60s on Wednesday with a continued North-Northwest breeze and a building cloud deck. There is a very limited chance for a few sprinkles, but most will again remain dry. Lighter winds Wednesday night will allow for some patches of frost to develop by Thursday morning, but afternoon sunshine will warm temperatures back into the upper 60s.

A warmer, summer-like, and active pattern will begin to set up later this week into next. This will be denoted by a rise in Gulf moisture flowing North into the Central United States. Local afternoon high temperatures will push into the upper 70s to near 80 several days. The added moisture will also produce daily thunderstorm chances, beginning Thursday night into Friday. Higher coverage and frequency of rain will be most prevalent Sunday through Monday night.
