WSIL -- It's cool again this morning with temperatures in the lower 50s, which is about 10º below average for this time of year.

A lot of sunshine Tuesday, but temperatures will still be running below average with highs in the lower 80s.
There will be a breeze Tuesday afternoon from the southwest with gusts that may top 15 miles per hour, making some of the region's lakes choppy.
