If the going weather pattern holds, we’ll be saying goodbye (temporarily) to the chill we’ve had in the air this past week.

While our temperatures will remain seasonal, in the low-mid 30s, on Monday, take a look at the images I’ve posted here that feature the forecast projection of the warmth set to move in later this week.   Keep an eye on the “warm” colors and you’ll see we won’t be the only portion of the country experiencing an increased level of warmth later this week.

We’re easily into the 40s by the end of the week and we may end up even warmer than that by the time we actually get there.  Stay tuned!

This warm air comes courtesy of a couple of weather systems tracking our way from the southern U.S. late this week and into the weekend.  These systems will bring the region precipitation, too.  With the atmospheric conditions so warm, though, all of the precip will fall as rain.
