We are in for a few chilly days. Last night was a cold night. Some areas got into the upper 20s while most stayed in the low to mid 30s. Temperatures did not warm up too much today as we had plenty of cloud cover. It wasn't too bad, but it was on the cool side.
Now a frontal boundary and an upper level system are moving through the region and will so during the day on Thursday. Temperatures Thursday will be back into the low 50s, but it will really cool down Thursday night and into Friday. Most locations will be quite cold on Thursday night as lows will again fall into the low 30s in most locations. Temperatures will be hard pressed to rebound during the day on Friday, even with sunshine. We will see rather breezy, if not windy, conditions during the day. The high will most likely be in the low to mid 40s in most locations with a high in the upper 40s in the city. We will be talking about wind chills during the day as well, especially in the morning. Wind chills Friday morning may be in the mid to upper 20s so get out those coats!
Now, here is the good news. By Saturday afternoon the same area of high pressure that is bringing in the cold air, will move off to the east ushering in much warmer air. Saturday will be much nicer with a high back in the mid 50s. It gets even better as we head into Sunday as high temperatures may reach back into the 60s. This is looking like a great weekend!! Get out and enjoy it and bundle up until then!
