We have had a gorgeous and warm stretch of weather this week and that continued into the day today.

Hope you were able to take advantage of the warmth because there are some changes on the way overnight into Sunday as a cold front comes in. Overnight starts dry, but clouds will build and some will see rain as early as 1 a.m. Temperatures will be warm overnight as well, only falling down to the upper 50s.

The best threat at storms on Sunday will be in the morning as a wave of showers and storms roll in ahead of the cold front. A few stronger to severe storms cannot be ruled out either. The Storm Prediction Center has placed part of the Tri-State in a Marginal Risk for severe weather Sunday. That is threat level 1 of 5, so it isn't overwhelming, but isn't zero.

Storm timeline

The wind will also be gusty, from the southwest at 25 to 35 mph at times. Temperatures will be cooling as this front passes, so we'll see an early high of 65 degrees early before falling through the rest of the afternoon.

Monday will be a cold one overall with mostly cloudy skies. Scattered showers will be possible off and on through the day. Winds from the west will stay breezy at 20 to 35 mph. We will have some wind chills in the upper 20s and low 30s at times. Not only will we have some isolated showers, there could be some sleet pellets or snow flakes mixing in to the north. No worries about accumulation with these. Highs on Monday will be around 55°.

The cold air sticks around for Tuesday morning before we warm up quickly. The mid 70s are on the way again by midweek.
