A very seasonable stretch of weather has been just what the doctor ordered the last few weeks.

On the WHOW Morning Show Wednesday, Nicole Albano with the National Weather Service in Lincoln indicates an upper blocking pattern for the very quiet and pleasant weather the last few weeks.

Thursday could be a record day for temperatures across the area. Albano indicates that upper blocking pattern will move off, and it will pave the way for very warm and humid conditions.

According to Albano, the conditions are nearly ideal for severe weather. She indicates, however, the severe weather could still miss central Illinois.

A cold front moves through on Friday, but the weekend looks ideal. Albano says Saturday is going to be the best day of the weekend with chances of rain on Sunday.
