Clouds will collect tonight after a very sunny day. The winds will be from the southwest. This milder wind and the blanket of cloud coverage will keep nighttime lows from getting as cold as last night. A warmer air mass is trying to move in from the Midwest. Along this weather system, clouds will build. There will be moments of very spaced-out showers. It won't slow the morning drive into work and school, but be prepared for some sprinkles.

Wednesday will be a breezy day filled with clouds. A few passing drizzly moments will start the day, but the majority of the day should be rain-free. The developing south-southwesterly breeze will draw in milder air. Daytime highs will climb to the upper 60s and low 70s. Winds could gust as high as 25 mph. The majority of the stormy weather will hold off until after 6 p.m. I wouldn't be surprised if there are a few non-severe thunderstorms spiraling through the region just before midnight.

There will be an opportunity for some leftover showers very early Thursday morning. The overall weather picture, however, will feature slow sky improvements with clouds yielding to sunshine.

Looking toward the weekend, temperatures warm to the 70s to possibly near 80 degrees. It might be the first time in a few weeks that we don't see any rain on a Saturday. Something to look forward to.

We'll get a glimpse at some late June weather with temperatures expected to be in the 80s to near 90 degrees next week.
