.DISCUSSION...
Behind a cold front, moderately deep mixing heights and 15-20 kt
westerly transport winds will make for good vent rates this
afternoon, especially north of I-72. Vent rates become a
little less favorable tomorrow as southerly transport winds weaken
a bit. Aside from a couple pop up storms south of I-70, the area
should be dry through tomorrow night, while 70% chances for
thunderstorms return Friday.
