High pressure builds in today along with cooler and far less humid air. Temperatures fall into the mid to upper 60s this afternoon. We stay cloudy most of the day and clear overnight into Friday. Friday's highs will be slightly warmer - in the low 70s. We should return to the upper 70s and near 80 this weekend but a steady wind off the lake will keep us in the low 70s near Lake Michigan. Our next chance for rain arrives Monday and Tuesday.
