Weather Alert

STATEMENT TEXT

...Cold air funnels will be possible...

Cold air funnels are expected today. These cold air funnels are
developing underneath a few showers that are moving across the
area. Underneath these showers...spinning columns of air that look
like tornadoes may continue to develop. These funnels usually are
very brief and rarely touch the ground. If these funnels do touch
down...they most likely will not cause damage to life or
property.

Cold air funnels are due to very cool air aloft...warm moist air
near the ground...and are usually in association with a strong
area of low pressure in the upper levels of the atmosphere. Due to
little or no wind shear...they are usually weak and very brief.

Soggy start before quiet weekend

WSIL (Carterville) -- Make sure to grab a light raincoat as you're headed out the door. Temperatures are very warm in the low 60s out ahead of the cold front. Isolated to scattered showers will continue through the morning before clearing out just in time for this evening. 

weekend

Quiet conditions make a brief return just in time for this weekend. Should be a perfect start to firearm deer hunting season. Highs drops into the 60s and skies stay fairly clear thanks to a high pressure. 

We'll need to be weather aware as we head into next week. A better chance for some much needed rain returns and sticks around off & on for 48 hours. 

If you're planning on traveling for Thanksgiving, you'll need to keep a close eye on things.

The other big change you'll notice as we head into the next work week are the temperatures. We'll see highs fall into the 50s and 40s just in time for the holiday.
