A final round of showers will pass through late this evening into the overnight with a quieter looking radar by daybreak. But it will be a blustery as we close in on dawn with gusts to 35+ mph. Expect temps to fall into the upper 40's with wake-up wind chills in the low 30s!

It will be windy tomorrow with gusts of 40-50 mph around the area. That said, the National Weather Service has issued a wind advisory for the city and points north and east through midday. As for temps, they'll be dramatically colder: mid and upper 40's with wind chills in the 30s!
