FORECAST DISCUSSION:

Happy Tuesday!

We've got another chilly day ahead of us, with a few flurries. We will see a bit more sunshine, however, and highs will be just a bit warmer. We top out in the middle 30s this afternoon, feeling just a bit colder with a slight breeze.

For Wednesday, we start the day dry, and our winds shift. Wind gusts really pick up into the afternoon, sending temps back close to 40. That's out ahead of an approaching cold front, which will bring us a scattered wintry mix into Wednesday evening/night.

That moisture clears up into early Thursday morning, leaving us with just a few flurries, but much colder temperatures. We'll also still be fairly gusty Thursday, with highs in the upper 20s, but feeling like the single digits and teens all day.

We'll see more sunshine by Friday, with highs close to freezing. Clouds will gradually build through the weekend, but highs will get closer to normal for this point in the year.
