National Weather Service Lincoln IL

.DISCUSSION...

Surface ridging will keep things dry and cool today. North winds
will veer to the east tonight, and then the east-southeast by
Thursday. Winds around 10 kts or less the next two days will lead
to unfavorable vent rates. Warmer and more active weather returns
Friday through the weekend as a few weather systems bring
periodic chances for showers and storms, including heavy rain and
some severe weather.
