Sunny, Windy, & Warmer

A closed upper air trough will spin over the Mid South today while high pressure over Central Colorado will produce downsloping northwest flow at the surface. The combination of the two will allow for sunnier, drier, and warmer weather today. Although highs will top out around 58, that will still be about 3 degrees below normal. It will also be windy today with some gusts up to 40 mph possible this afternoon. Decoupling will occur after sunset and winds will begin to subside. With light winds, dry air, and clear skies, strong radiational cooling will occur tonight. In fact, lows will likely be around 29 tomorrow morning.
