Overall a quiet night across the region. Cloud cover has moved across northern portions of the region tonight in response to an upper level disturbance moving across the Midwest. Looking toward the north, a few light showers are progressing through portions of northeast Missouri and western Illinois. Dewpoint depressions are fairly high and with a lack of forcing do not anticipate more than a sprinkle across the far north.
High pressure moving across the Great Lakes this morning will move into the northeast by midweek. Temperatures today will be cooler with highs in the mid 50s across the north and east to low 60s elsewhere. After mid 30s to low 40s temperatures Wednesday morning, a warming trend begins with temperatures rising to 5-10 degrees above normal Wednesday and Thursday and 10-15 degrees Friday and through the weekend. Guidance continues to advertise a cold front approaching from the northwest on Friday into Saturday. Right now, only a 20-30% chance of showers and storms are in the forecast from roughly Perry county MO north and east to the I-64 corridor. Better chances for precipitation are in the forecast for early next week as an upper level disturbance moving across the plains.

As a Canadian surface high pressure system offers a reinforcing cool shot upon taking its hold across the Ohio Valley, expect SCT-BKN VFR bases to enter the forecast picture over maily the back half of the forecast. This will also shift winds around to the north, then northeast, heading thru the daytime hours tmrw.
