Cloudy, Cold, & Blustery

Temperatures warmed up for a couple of days late last week, but we've turned sharply colder following a frontal passage on Sunday. Temperatures are currently in the upper 30s and likely won't rise much today with low clouds and strong cold air advection. The main upper air low is lifting the little moisture that is currently around and causing some snow flurries mainly to our north. A few flurries are possible this morning around the area, but the best chance to see these would be up north. No travel problems will occur since temperatures are above freezing! Clouds will hang around this afternoon and the high will top out around 44. Clouds may still hang tough through most of the night and won't allow temperatures to drop as far as they could. With this in mind, I think the overnight low drops to 29. If skies are clear longer than forecast, lows could easily be 2-3 degrees colder. A big temperature swing is in store this week with highs in the 60s on Wednesday but turning colder by the end of the week.
