...New Short Term, Long Term, Aviation...

.KEY MESSAGES...

- Sunny and rain-free weather will prevail through the entire
  workweek and into the weekend with afternoon highs returning to
  the 70s and 80s tomorrow.

&&

.SHORT TERM... /NEW/
/Through Tuesday/

Following an abnormally cold morning with temperatures 15-20
degrees below normal (and a handful of sites dipping to near or
below freezing), ample sunshine will allow afternoon highs to
climb into the 60s area-wide. A broad area of high pressure will
encompass most of the Central CONUS through tomorrow with fair
weather and clear skies in store. As the surface ridge axis shifts
farther east tonight, winds will return to southerly tomorrow
which will result in a continued warming trend heading into the
midweek period. Highs on Tuesday will easily reach the 70s.

.LONG TERM... /NEW/
/Wednesday Onward/

Warmer weather will return during the midweek period following a few
days of southerly return flow and abundant insolation. Highs will
return to near or even a touch above normal both Wednesday and
Thursday with readings in the 70s and 80s. Late Thursday, we`ll
catch the tail end of a trailing cold front associated with a
fast-moving Upper Midwest low pressure system. This will briefly
scour the modestly recovered low-level moisture from the area
while knocking a few degrees off of temperatures to end the
workweek. Since all of the dynamic ascent with this system will
remain far to the north and east across the Great Lakes region,
the boundary`s passage should be rain-free locally. Anomalous
heights will progressively build heading into the weekend which
will allow temperatures to climb into the upper 80s and perhaps
lower 90s by Sunday. The next chance for rain or thunderstorms
within the CWA looks to be towards the middle or end of next week
as another front arrives. Overall, the next several days will
feature the most pleasant spring weather that one could ask for.

.AVIATION... /NEW/
/18z TAFs/

VFR/SKC will prevail with no significant aviation concerns
through the period. Light north winds will return to southerly
tonight at speeds of 10 kts or less.
