Warmer Temperatures Coming...

We've gone through some pretty chilly temperatures over the past few days... but good news is in the forecast, with some nice warming expected for a day on Saturday. After that we get slammed with some more chilly air (but drier air this time), but we can at least enjoy some 60ish degree type of weather for the 1st half of the weekend.

Part of how we know that will happen is by looking at temperatures at about 5000 feet (above us again. When you get a little sun and wind, it mixes everything up and those temperatures way up there become a good indicator about just how warm or cold things will be.


If this map actually pans out and the right types of mixing occur, we could end up with temperatures even a little more than the conservative forecasts near the low 60s we've been talking about on KDLT. If you look just a little farther north toward southern Canada you can see the cold arctic blast making its way to the South, but at least we are warm for a day.
