Discussion
Low pressure will track northwest of the region today producing a residual shower this morning and additional showers in the afternoon. In addition, the winds will pick up noticeably this afternoon and there can be a gusty thunderstorm as well. It’ll turn colder later tonight on the heels of a cold frontal passage and skies will clear after midnight. On Wednesday, it’ll be a colder day and there will be the chance of rain late – perhaps mixed with sleet at the onset – as a warm front approaches from our southwest. After the passage of the warm front, temperatures could shoot up well up into the 60’s on Thursday and then another cold shot will arrive at week’s end. Low pressure could produce some rain and/or snow shower activity around here sometime during the upcoming weekend.
