Thursday Starts Out Cold But Warmer Days Are Ahead
A surge of colder air has moved into the state and you will feel the chill early Thursday morning. Most spots will start out in the low to mid 30s. It’s a one and done because we’re approaching 60 Thursday afternoon and Friday morning won’t be near as cold. We see a nice little warm up as temps approach 70 degrees Saturday. It’s a brief warm up before rain and storms move through ahead of a cold front. That front will usher in another surge of cold air and we’re heading back towards the freezing mark early next week.
In the meantime, high pressure will be over us Thursday and Friday. This will put us back into a mainly sunny and dry conditions to close out the week. . Temps will be running in the lower to mid 60s highs Thursday and overnight lows in the upper 30s to lower 40s. The area of high pressure will move eastward going into the weekend. We pick up a southeasterly wind flow on the westside of the high and that begins to warm us a bit. We’re approaching the upper 60s going into Saturday.
There will be some changes ahead of Saturday and Sunday. Another frontal system will advance eastward into the state. Moisture will be on the increase and we’re expecting a round of showers and storms Saturday night into Sunday. This system will be monitored for the risk of strong to severe storms. At the moment, the risk is low but I wouldn’t be surprised to see a few strong storms pass through the area. We will definitely keep you posted on it.
