I'm afraid I've got bad news.

Southerly winds will continue to bring in the warmth, but our nice weather will be limited to the next two days. A major drop in temperatures is expected for midweek for much of the country. It will first affect the Upper Plains states Monday and Tuesday. The Midwest and Mid-South will feel the chill Wednesday and Thursday. The East Coast will shiver Friday.

Warm winds will fuel some rain and thunderstorms for the Rockford area Tuesday night and early Wednesday morning. If the front were to move through during the peak afternoon heating we'd be talking about the threat of severe. Right now it appears the atmosphere will be relatively stable. Still, we could have thunderstorms early Wednesday morning with snow flakes flying late in the day.

Temperatures will likely stay below freezing for the bulk of the Thursday-Sunday timeframe. -ERIC

We have had one heck of a November this year. No complaints from me. I am actually looking forward to a little snow. This Friday maybe?

Friday is looking quite promising! Time will tell though. These models can really change around this time of year. -ERIC
