DISCUSSION
AFTER A DRY DAY TUESDAY, CHANCES FOR SPOTTY RAIN SHOWERS FINALLY
RETURN WEDNESDAY AS LOW PRESSURE MOVES THROUGH THE LOWER MIDWEST.
THAT SAID, BETTER FORCING IS SOUTHEAST OF THE AREA, SO EVEN WHERE WE
CAN PICK UP ANY RAIN, ACCUMULATIONS BELOW A TENTH OF AN INCH ARE
EXPECTED. OTHERWISE, LOOK FOR ANOTHER MILD DAY WITH HIGHS IN THE
UPPER 60S. DEWPOINTS MAY NOT FALL BACK AS FAR AS ON TUESDAY, BUT RH
SHOULD STILL DROP INTO THE LOWER 40S% RANGE. MEANWHILE, LIGHT
NORTHEAST TO EAST WINDS TO START BECOME LAKE-BREEZE DOMINANT FOR THE
AFTERNOON HOURS, WHICH COULD CAUSE WINDS TO SHIFT MORE TO THE EAST-
SOUTHEAST. DRY WEATHER RETURNS FOR THURSDAY WHILE TEMPERATURES CLIMB
A COUPLE DEGREES HIGHER, PEAKING IN THE LOWER 70S. DRIER AND BETTER-
MIXED AIR WILL LEAD TO A BETTER POTENTIAL FOR LOWER RH BELOW 40%
INTO THE AFTERNOON HOURS. WINDS REMAIN LIGHT, GRADUALLY BACKING TO
THE SW THROUGH THE DAY, BUT A LIGHT WIND FIELD MAY LEAD TO ANOTHER
LAKEBREEZE-DOMINANT AFTERNOON WITH SUDDEN WIND SHIFTS POSSIBLE.
