.DISCUSSION...
Arctic high pressure across the Northern Plains will move east
into the upper midwest this afternoon. This will set up south
winds around the periphery of the high pressure system.

The wind forecast represents a blend of 8 data sets plus 1 mph
which appears close to a 13 model ensemble. The high clouds moving
off the Big Horns in Wyoming should move east of your area this
morning. This should produce abundant sunshine supporting high
temperatures in the 70s.
