The forecast from FOX 17 Chief Meteorologist Kevin Craig: After a beautiful, warm spring day and the first 80 degree day of the season yesterday, a low pressure system moving across the southern portion of the state today may bring a few light scattered showers and/or perhaps a rumble of thunder in spots. Widespread storms are not expected, but a few could contain some gusty winds. The best chance of a gusty storm is along and south of the I-94 corridor in the afternoon and early evening. This is our best chance at some widespread rain, although many areas will likely be missed or will see very little rain. Dry and cooler weather arrives this weekend with highs in the mid/upper 50s Saturday and low to mid 60s Sunday. Another warm up arrives Monday and Tuesday next week with highs well into the 70s. More storms are possible next Tuesday, some of which could be on the strong to severe side. Stay tuned to FOX 17 for the latest forecast updates.
