Frosty morning, warmer Thursday afternoon
Temperatures quickly warm up heading into the holiday weekend.
This morning:
Frosty temperatures greet you this morning. Many areas are below freezing. In some cases, we are well below freezing, especially up north. We are dealing with a mainly clear sky and light winds, which are causing the drop in temperatures this morning.

Easter weekend:
An active pattern is setting up as we gear up for the holiday weekend and beyond. A warm front draped across the state will create chances for showers and thunderstorms on Saturday. We don’t think that the day will be a washout, but you should keep an eye out for chances of rain at any park during the day.

Easter Sunday could potentially be wet, but right now we’re leaning toward later in the afternoon and evening for some of those better rain chances.

8 day forecast:
The opening of the workweek provides us with the best opportunity for rain and storms as a stronger upper-level wave pushes into the Midwest. Right now, there does look to be the possibility of thunderstorms and possibly even a few stronger storms for both Monday and Tuesday.

We will see a shot of colder air briefly moving in through the middle of next week, with highs back to the low fifties by Wednesday.

Longer range pattern does bring our temperatures back to above average as we head into the middle of the month.
