Sunny Sunday, pleasant week ahead
EVANSVILLE, Ind. (WFIE) -Saturday was the last mid-90 degree day we’ll sweat through for at least the next 5 days. A few stray showers may pop up in the eastern half of the Tri-State (mainly east of I-69) on Sunday. Highs will pull back into the mid 80s and humidity levels will drop as northwesterly winds kick in. Even cooler and drier air will settle in for the first half of the work week. Highs from Monday-Wednesday will only rise into the upper 70s and low 80s. The dry air will cool quickly overnight, so we’ll wake up to sunny, crisp mornings in the upper 50s. By Thursday and Friday, temps will start to inch back up into the upper 80s, and the 90s will return for next weekend. No rain chances for the next 5-7 days. Our string of rainless days will extend to 20 by week’s end.
