Storms will work to clear out as we roll through the suppertime hours. Skies will begin to clear following that with temperatures dropping into the low to mid 30s by tomorrow morning. Even though storms themselves have not been very powerful, strong ambient winds from the southwest (10-25 mph G 30+) will remain in the area into tonight. A wind advisory is in effect until 1:00 am tonight/tomorrow morning to account for this.

Overnight some cirrus clouds are likely to pass over, but they will bring no rain and also will do little for insulation. Luckily the winds will be calmer from the west-southwest around 5 mph as temperatures drop below freezing.

Sunday and Beyond
