SIOUX FALLS, SD (KELO) — Cloud cover and a little rain have been in the mix today, but most of the day overall has been relatively quiet…especially to the west and northwest.
Beyond an isolated shower or two mainly before midnight, we’re looking pretty good tonight with partly to mostly cloudy skies. Unfortunately, that spells trouble for stargazers who want to see the lunar eclipse…as viewing conditions are going to be less than ideal.
Clouds hang tough to the east for Tuesday, which will keep temperatures in the 40s and 50s. Areas to the west get in on more sunshine and rise into the 50s and low 60s on occasion. Everyone, though, gets in on a sunny and mild day on Wednesday…making that arguably the Pick Day of the Week.
Clouds increase on Thursday as does the temperature, but the latter is going to be short-lived. Low pressure makes its move on Friday, sending a chance for rain our way with snow mixing in at times overnight depending on what kind of cold air can get brought in on the backside of this low. We may even get a rumble of thunder or two out of the equation in southeastern KELOLAND.
The weekend outlook is looking rather nice, with partly to mostly sunny skies and temperatures rising into the 50s and 60s for both days. Enjoy it if you can! If not, next Monday is looking warm as well, but clouds do begin to move back into the region as we watch another chance for moisture just beyond the 7 day outlook.
