It was been a perfect September day, in November, across the Tri-State on Tuesday. For the second day in a row temperatures reached the low 70s. And the best part? There is more on the way.

As we go into the overnight tonight, a warm front will lift to the north out of southern Kentucky and bring in a few more clouds. Maybe even a few sprinkles. The best chance for these showers will be between 3 a.m. and 7 a.m. but more than likely, we won't get much rain with the lower humidity still in place, but a few isolated sprinkles still may pop up. Overnight temperatures will dip into the low to mid 50s as winds turn back to the south southeast.

Wednesday starts off mostly cloudy, but those clouds should break by midday and lead to some gorgeous weather across the area for the afternoon. Wind will be breezy for much of the day, gusting from the south to 25 mph. The big deal on Wednesday will be the warmth. Temperatures will be back into the 70s, but this time into the upper 70s. We are looking at a high near 78°, which would fall JUST shy of the record for November 8. The record is 79° set back in 2020.

That will be the last of the extreme warmth, because a cold front moves into the Tri-State overnight Wednesday into Thursday morning. While this boundary could bring in some brief overnight, the big deal will be the cooler air behind it. Showers are most likely between midnight and 7 a.m. The rest of the day Thursday will be mostly cloudy and dry with a high of 63 and falling humidity. Winds will be breeze at times, gusting from the northwest up to 15 mph.

Temperatures cool back to the mid 50s for Friday and the weekend ahead. Even Friday's rain chances don't look like much and the weekend still looks dry.
