A strong low pressure center cutting through the Great Lakes dragged a warm front through the area last night and will swing a cold front across the region today – ensuring a mild but damp Monday. While it won’t be raining all day, expect pockets of mist and drizzle to move in and out of the area into early afternoon, followed by a round of steadier rain during the afternoon and evening hours. Winds will swing around to the west this evening as the surface cold front plows eastward through the area, bringing falling temperatures and drying conditions overnight. After climbing to near 50F today…temperatures will fall back to near 30F overnight tonight and remain in the 30s on Tuesday as another round of cold air settles into the region (for an extended stay). Tuesday’s cold temperatures will be accompanied by a strrong, gusty west wind (gusts better than 40 mph likely) which will add a sting to the air.
