A cold front will impact the area on Monday. This will bring showers and storms to the area Monday afternoon and evening. These storms could be severe. The entire area is under a level 2 for severe storms. The biggest threat will be damaging wind gusts, heavy rain and an isolated tornado. Temperatures will warm to the mid 80s.

High pressure will finally make an appearance on Tuesday and Wednesday. Some much needed sunshine will break out across the area.Expect highs near 80. A few more clouds will build in on
