The low tonight will be 61 degrees, with partly cloudy skies and a light wind from the southwest. Now, brace yourself for tomorrow&#8217;s weather.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tomorrow (Wednesday):<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I double checked, and yes, it will in fact still be April. It&#8217;s the middle of spring. And yet, the high tomorrow is 87 degrees. This shouldn&#8217;t be allowed. At least it&#8217;ll be a little windy \u2014 the wind will be coming from the west at 6 to 11 mph, gusting up to 21 mph. If you like the heat, then have fun&#8230; but if you&#8217;re like me and absolutely can&#8217;t stand the heat, I&#8217;m so sorry.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tomorrow Night:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Tomorrow night will reach a nice, balmy low of 67 degrees. Expect it to be mostly cloudy with only a light wind; all around, a very pleasant sounding night!<\/p>\n<p><strong>A Look Ahead:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There is currently a large storm system passing over the country, but it should mostly die down by the time it reaches our area. Expect a chance of showers on Thursday and Friday, but nothing like the severe thunderstorms the Midwest is seeing right now. The rain will bring temperatures down a bit towards the weekend, but it looks like we&#8217;re starting to reach the part of the year where we consistently get close to 80 degrees.
