Today is a fitting end to what has been a downright balmy week of weather. Skilling Central predicts the temperature could tie a 49-year high if we reach 79 degrees today. And with the winds gusting from the south this morning, Skilling and the other meteorologists may be on to something. There should be plenty of sunshine today to add to the pleasantness before the winds shift to the north, we see a chance of rain develop and the mercury drops like riding a roller coaster at Great America.
