A warm Wednesday makes way for clearing skies overnight as a front passes through

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (WMC) - Temperatures warming into the 70s midday Wednesday come with partly cloudy skies and a chance at a brief spotty shower. Highs reach the middle to upper 70s after 2pm with clearing skies after sunset.

Overnight, temperatures gradually fall through the 60s before reaching the 50s after midnight. Skies turn clear with lows bottoming out in the upper 40s around sunrise.

Thursday brings a breeze day with mostly sunny skies as the backside of a cold front brings a wind out of the northwest. Temperatures warm into the 60s by 11am, but the cool breeze will mean its best to bring a light jacket for any outdoor plans as highs reach the lower to middle 60s after 2pm.

The Extended Forecast brings a big chill to Memphis and the Mid-South as morning lows in the 30s Friday make way for afternoon highs in the lower 50s. Saturday morning features a widespread frost and freeze across the area as morning lows fall into the upper 20s and lower 30s. Highs only reach the 50s each day this weekend before a gradual warm up next week.
