QUAD CITIES, Iowa/Ill. (KWQC) -- YOUR FIRST ALERT FORECAST FROM CHIEF METEOROLOGIST ERIK MAITLAND
If you’ve enjoyed the mild weather that lingered from the weekend, Tuesday has more in store. Highs will reach the 60s for one more day before a midweek system brings showers and a noticeable cooldown.
Scattered showers move through early Wednesday, with a few non-severe thunderstorms possible. Rainfall totals should be around a half-inch or less.
Behind the system, cooler air arrives from the north. Highs Thursday through Saturday will top out in the 40s, and lows will drop into the 20s through the weekend.
The chill won’t last forever. Milder weather returns early next week, with highs climbing back into the 50s and perhaps the 60s later in the week.
