(Today through Tonight)
Issued at 117 AM CDT Thu Mar 28 2024

Chilly morning across the midstate with current temperatures in
the upper 30s to mid 40s. Satellite imagery shows some scattered 
cirrus moving across the area, but these clouds should move out of
the area the next few hours. With mostly clear skies, light to 
calm winds, dewpoints below freezing, and lows dropping into the
mid to upper 30s - patchy to fairly widespread frost is expected 
by sunrise and made no changes to the frost advisory. Despite the 
frosty start, a decent warmup is anticipated today with highs 
reaching the upper 50s to mid 60s. Tonight will be chilly once 
again although a few degrees warmer than this morning, and some 
frost will once again be possible mainly along and east of I-65
with another frost advisory potentially necessary.
