Boating Season Not Done Yet


Golfing, boating, or fishing. It doesn't matter what activity you choose this weekend, just make sure you do it outdoors as we continue to experience a nice stretch of sunny and warm weather.

As I blogged about yesterday, today's cool front is going to do little to change our weather. ExacTrack actually removed all precipitation across the Stateline during this morning's model run. The only impact this front will have on us is a shift in our wind direction. Southwesterly winds today will allow the warming trend to continue and push our highs today 5° warmer than yesterday. As we get more of an easterly flow off of Lake Michigan tomorrow, our temperatures will take a slight dip. We've still got to be thankful as 74° is still the average high for this time of year. The direction flips around into a southwesterly flow again for Friday, which means a few spots could get close to 80° again.

Fall officially begins on Monday at 10:44am CDT. It doesn't appear as though Mother Nature cares about sticking to the calendar. The 6-10 day outlook keeps our temperatures above average throughout the entire next work week (September 22nd-26th). -ADAM
