A warm and windy Monday ahead with strong storm chances looming in the evening

ROCKFORD, Ill. (WIFR) – It has been a fantastic day across the stateline! Highs have been close if not at the 70 degree mark with plenty of sunshine. Our skies will remain mostly clear tonight with lows dropping to the lower 50s. There are one or two models suggesting an isolated shower or storm may form tonight. While it is possible, I think our chances are exceptionally low close to 10 to 20%.

Monday will feature plenty of sunshine. Wind gusts are going to be exceptionally strong, with some gusts near 35 to 40 mph. This will drive warm moist air across the region. Highs will jump into the lower to middle 80s and dewpoints jump into the mid-60s making for a warm summer like day.
