Sabrina Ullman: Warming trend for the rest of the week

Tonight will start cloudy but clear by daybreak. Overnight lows will be in the mid to upper 20s. A light west wind will shift to the northwest late tonight.

Thursday will be slightly warmer than today. Afternoon highs will be close to 50 degrees throughout the Northland.

The warming trend will continue for the rest of the week. Friday and Saturday will reach the upper 50s to mid-60s. Sunday will be the warmest day this week and potentially the warmest for several months as afternoon temperatures climb to the low 70s south of the Twin Ports.

All good things must come to an end, including good weather. Rain chances return Sunday afternoon, increasing into the evening and overnight hours. Thunderstorms, with some becoming severe, are possible.

The rain will continue into Monday as a low-pressure system enters the region, but then things get interesting. The type of precipitation Monday night into Tuesday morning will be determined by the track and speed of the low-pressure system as it exits the area. Cold weather returns Tuesday.
