Warm Tuesday; Temperatures crash later this week

High temperatures reached close to 80 degrees this afternoon. Winds out of the west helped bring warmer temperatures toward the shoreline, as the breeze came off of the land and not the water. Once a lake breeze set up in the afternoon, temperatures at the lakeshore fell a few degrees.
