Discussion

The new week starts off quite warm with well above normal temperatures and afternoon highs in the middle 70’s. A brief, but rather dramatic pattern change takes place with a frontal passage later Tuesday that will usher in cold air for the mid-week. Rain showers may initially accompany the transition to the mid-week cold and then, as cold air gets better established, the rain can change to snow in the higher elevation and the plains. Dry conditions and more seasonal temperatures should rule the day on Halloween (Thursday) with highs back to near 60 degrees.
