We have above normal warmth to start the week in the mid-60s. Clouds increase Tuesday going into Wednesday as a low is forecast to form along a warm front. This brings us the first chance for rain Tuesday night into Wednesday morning. There appears to be a brief pause in rain chances before before a more potent storm passes Thursday. As pointed out by forecasters, this storm looks to be associated with a vigorous upper low that should enhance lift. Some thunderstorms could be possible with this.. Temperatures will trend lower towards end of week.
Rest of today – high pressure in control with plenty of sun, high temperatures should rise into the mid-60s with downsloping northwesterly winds. Overnight lows in the mid-40s.
Tuesday – a warm front associated with a low tracking into the Great Lakes makes its approach. Ahead of this low, clouds will increase, though temperatures should still be able to reach into the low-60s. Overnight lows around 50°F with rain chances increasing.
Wednesday – rain early in the day as the warm front lifts through the region. High temperatures still reaching into the low-60s. There may be possible partial clearing of skies in the afternoon as we get into the warm sector behind the warm front. Overnight lows in the upper-40s.
Thursday – a second, more powerful storm hits the region. A closed upper low over the Great Lakes will provide enhanced lift for this storm as it pushes a cold front through the area later on Thursday. High temperatures in the upper-50s. Showers and possibly thunderstorms will accompany the cold front passage. Overnight lows in the low-40s.
