However, the winds will be gusting to near 35 mph and if you forget your coat, you will quickly wish you had it on. The temperatures will feel like the 20s to 30s. Yes, we are talking wind chills again and you need your hot cocoa, coffee and winter wear!

There is a small chance of a few showers on Thursday as a bit of energy comes out of northwest Mexico and Arizona. With the isentrophic life, we will see our rain coverage at 20-40% coverage but still not a washout in the forecast.

If you liked the warmer temps, don't worry because this weather whiplash continues as our temps then warm back into the 70s on Friday and this weekend... back into the 80s! 

A trough of low pressure digs into the West United States allowing our surface flow to be southerly which aids in warming us above average. That same upper trough then shifts east into the plains toward Sunday into Monday increasing our clouds and our rain chances starting next week.
