A weak front will pass by tomorrow and could trigger a few sprinkles. Otherwise, we’ll continue with light winds and moderate relative humidity through Friday.

Winds will increase and become breezy this weekend. This will elevate the wildfire risk. Gusts will range from 25- 35 mph.

An upper-level ridge in the jet stream will keep a warmer air mass parked across the Upper Midwest. As a result, temperatures will trend 10-20 degrees above normal.
