Overall, a quiet stretch of weather is expected across the region through next Monday, with the only notable disturbance arriving Thursday evening. In fact, tonight will probably be the coldest night we will see for a long time. Soak it up!
High pressure will remain in control through tomorrow night, keeping conditions dry and pleasant. Winds will turn southerly by tomorrow, though, allowing moisture to slowly return and temperatures to gradually moderate.
Highs will climb into the 70s Wednesday, with some lower 80s possible south of I-20 by Thursday. A cold front will approach Thursday night, bringing a chance for showers and storms — mainly north of I-20 — with a marginal risk for isolated severe storms, including damaging wind gusts and quarter-sized hail.
While we can’t rule out a chance for a storm here or there on Thursda ynigth across our area, the risk for severe weather looks pretty low. This activity will clear out early Friday, followed by a drier airmass and cooler temps into the weekend.
Moisture returns again by Monday, with another warming trend expected to kick off the new week.
