An area of low pressure moving through the Great Lakes will drag a cold front through the state this evening. Ahead of the front, strong southwesterly winds will send temperatures into the 70s and set the stage for scattered showers and thunderstorms.
There is a slight risk that these storms could become severe with large hail and damaging winds as the primary concern. Be sure to check the radar and be aware of any possible watches and warnings that may be issued this afternoon.
The showers and storms will be pushed eastward and off the coast by later this evening as the cold front moves through.
High pressure builds in tomorrow, bringing more gusty winds and highs around 60. The winds will decrease through the day, becoming calm overnight and Friday. Friday’s highs will again be near 60.
Another area of low pressure will move through the area Friday night and Saturday bringing another chance of rain. Highs on Saturday will be limited by the cloud cover, but should again be near 60. High temperatures will rise into the upper 60s on Sunday and look to remain there as we head into the work week.
