Clouds rolled in last night across the region and scattered showers are possible later this morning through the mid afternoon hours. It's all because of a storm system moving in from the west that's picking up moisture from the Gulf of Mexico. This system should exit the region later today and expect gradual clearing this evening and tonight. Overnight lows will be cold coupled with gusty northwest winds. Windy and chilly weather is anticipated for your Wednesday before another disturbance arrives by the end of the week.
