- Cooler than normal this week with Rain on Wednesday
The Great Lakes region will continue to be in a fast quasi-zonal
flow regime on the southern edge of persistent upper troughing
across eastern Canada this week. This will keep temperatures below
normal while a shortwave trough brings the chance for rain
Wednesday into Wednesday night.
Moisture is limited on Wednesday with little return flow out
ahead of the low in a northwest flow regime and and precip amounts
