The cold front will arrive around lunchtime on Sunday which could limit how warm the region gets in the afternoon. This will limit overall storm potential, however the presence of some low level wind shear could allow for some rotation if storms are able to get going.

Following the passing of the front Sunday clear, cool, and dry conditions will take back over the region to begin next week.
