Gusty and Much Cooler with Lingering Showers Friday

Low pressure over the Great Lakes will set us up for a blustery start to the weekend. Expect extensive cloud cover Friday, scattered showers and isolated t-showers, a gusty (30 to 40 mph) W/NW wind, and much cooler highs in the upper 50s. Saturday looks much nicer, with plenty of sunshine and highs jumping to the upper 60s. Sunday will soar into the 70s, thanks to a strong southwest flow. Well-above-normal warmth dominates much of next week, with highs consistently in the mid to upper 70s.
