Good Saturday, everyone. Windy and mild weather has engulfed the bluegrass state and will hang tough through the first half of Sunday. This is another in a long line of spring flings in what has been a winter of ups and downs you typically see in March. Well, guess what we have for the week ahead? Yep… more ups and downs.

Temps today surge into the 60s on a strong southwesterly flow. Clouds will increase and some showers will be noted, especially later today into this evening.

Gusty showers continue into the first half of Sunday as a cold front plows through here. Don’t expect a ton of rain this weekend, with most areas under a quarter of an inch…

Temperatures Sunday morning will be in the 60s for most of the state, but will drop during the afternoon and evening. Readings will be in the 40s by late afternoon and then keep dropping through Monday morning. Lows by then should be in the 20s.

Seasonal temps and nice skies will be with us to start the new week. Valentine’s Day will find us watching to see if we can get a system diving in from the north can merge with a system across the south.

The GFS continues to answer NO to that question…

That model shows the trough digging in and leaving the southern storm down along the gulf states. If that’s the case, its a 2 day cold shot with some flurries or snow showers possible.

The European Model keeps showing much more of a phase, but the current run has the storm too far to our east for any substantial impact…

Whatever happens with that setup, another serious surge of mild air is likely to follow…

I will throw you another update later today. Enjoy your Saturday and take care.
