As we head into the homestretch of the work week the slow warming trend continues. Shed the hoodies and sweatshirts today as highs are expected to reach the upper 70s with plenty of sun and not a threatening cloud in sight. Overnight lows are expected to dip into the upper 50s to lower 60s as the area will slowly warm over the weekend. By Monday we will be flirting with 90-degree temperatures and—get this, softball league players—possible thunderstorms.
