We had to deal with a Northeast wind today, which gave us cooler air. But once we go into Tuesday, the wind will shift to the South and help draw in some milder air. Expect a fair amount of sunshine and highs in the 40s for most areas. Some locales will jump into the very low 50s, but that won't happen along the shore of Lake Michigan!
Clouds will increase on Wednesday and the wind will pick up. However, we continue to warm with highs in the mid to upper 50s.
I still believe showers hold off on Thursday--despite thick cloud cover at times. Highs will again be in the 50s and it stays breezy. Overall, not bad weather as the Brewers start the season! Expect a first pitch temp near 52° with a stronger West wind.
The seasonal tug-of-war continues as we close out the week: we'll see a chance for showers and a few snowflakes, plus temps will drop back into the 30s for Saturday afternoon.
