Weather for WI @ RU: Cool Morning Warming into the 70s and Likely Dry

[RU848789]

This pattern, with high pressure being in control for most of the week, is just about a lock for a nice day for the WI game, but it's 7 days out so it's probably prudent to wait a day or two before going that far. At this point, it looks like morning lows in the mid/upper 40s, quickly warming up into the low/mid 70s by early afternoon with mostly sunny and dry conditions and comfortable humidity.

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...
The region looks to be influenced by surface high pressure
through the duration of the long term. Surface high pressure
centered to our west Tuesday night will gradually move eastward
with time. Meanwhile, another bubble of high pressure centered
over the Great Lakes region Wednesday night/Thursday slowly
slides south/southeastwards with time for reinforcement.
Ultimately, surface high pressure continues to influence the
region while looking to be centered in the vicinity of the Ohio
River Valley for Thursday, Friday, and Saturday.

With surface high pressure in control, we are looking at a dry
forecast through the long term. Though some shortwave energy
could propagate through Tuesday night/Wednesday, some increase
in cloud cover will likely be all that occurs. Dry air advection
and prevailing NW flow will continue through much of the term.
It will certainly feel like autumn with low humidity and
temperatures forecast to be around average to slightly below
average.
