Yo-yo weather. That's our theme for the next few days! Look for temperatures to take a big swing to the cooler side on Friday. We're talking afternoon readings in the 40s. That's a 30 degree drop from today!! There is also a chance for a few showers, perhaps even a strong t-storms late Friday night.
Better odds for thunderstorms will be over the weekend. By Sunday, we could see a few strong to severe storms. The reason for this--and our flip in temperatures--is due to the stationary front we've talked about all week. It's going to drift back North and place the Southern half of the state in warmer air. So highs will rebound in the 70s on Saturday.
Look for cooler air to dip back in for Monday and Tuesday. Then, back to the warmer air Wednesday! Yo-yo weather indeed.
