Cool start to the week followed by consistent warm-up

The jacket will be helpful this morning with lows in the bottom of the 40s out the door. Patchy and dense fog is possible this morning, but few travel impacts are expected. Highs reach into the low 70s today amidst abundant sunshine with a ridge of high pressure creeping eastward over the next several days. Temperatures retreat to the upper 40s tonight and quickly convert to the upper 70s by tomorrow afternoon. As the center of the ridge moves over the Great Lakes later this week, highs will skyrocket to the low 80s from Wednesday onward. A few slight rain chances present themselves Wednesday night into Thursday as a trough slowly replaces the ridge in the back half of this week.

Today: Sunny. High 72.

Tonight: Mostly clear. Low 47.

Tuesday: Mostly sunny. High 78.

Wednesday: Partly cloudy. High 80.
