Seasonable temperatures return with spotty storm chances

Isolated T-Storms:

A weak frontal boundary will slowly drift through the Stateline today, bringing a mic of clouds and sun along with the chance for a few isolated showers and storms. Not everyone will see rainfall, but a brief downpour or two and even a rumble of thunder can't be ruled out this afternoon and evening. Behind today's frontal passage, temperatures will be a smidge cooler compared to the last few days, with afternoon highs peaking in the low 80s.  

The threat for severe weather later today into tonight remains rather low across the Stateline, as the highest potential will stay well to our south. Currently, the Storm Prediction Center has placed portions of central Missouri, southern Illinois, and southwest Indiana under a level 2 Slight Risk for scattered thunderstorms. Closer to home, northern Illinois and southern Wisconsin remain under a general thunderstorm risk, meaning widespread severe weather is not expected today. 

Chances May Linger:

Friday looks to be even drier as high pressure builds into the northern Great Lakes region. Patchy fog may develop early in the morning, especially in low-lying and rural areas, before giving way to a mix of clouds and sunshine during the afternoon. While most locales will remain dry, an isolated shower or storm cannot be completely ruled out. Afternoon highs will end up similar to today, in the low 80s.
