Tuesday is the 'pick day of the week' as temperature soar to the low to mid-70s thanks to a southerly flow.

Expect showers and a few thunderstorms as a strong cold front approaches. It will usher in much colder temps, gusty winds (40mph) and the chance for some elevation snowfall. Temperatures will drop into the 30s which will likely mean a frost advisory.

Don't forget Thursday is Earth Day!
