Good Monday, everyone. It’s spring break week for many school systems across the state, so the kiddos are hoping for some good weather. Unfortunately, mother nature has different ideas. Rounds of thunderstorms and the potential for some snowflakes highlight the forecast this week.

Let’s begin with today and roll forward. Gusty showers and thunderstorms will rumble in from the southwest. Some of the storms may be strong or locally severe, especially across the south. I have your tracking tools…

That action moves away later Tuesday with warm southwesterly winds continuing. Those winds will REALLY crank on Wednesday as another potent storm moves into the Ohio Valley. As this storm wraps up, we will need to watch for strong and severe storms developing ahead of it…

That’s a lot of wind energy showing up with that low, so it wouldn’t take much for storms to bring that down to the surface.

MUCH colder air quickly wraps in behind this for Thursday and Friday. Wraparound rain and snow showers will be possible during this time…

Here’s where the GFS thinks will see some snow flying…

Outside of very warm weather around Christmas, there’s nothing worse than cold weather in the spring. U-G-L-Y.

The good news is, the cold is in and out in a few days. Temps by Sunday and Monday will shoot way up there and may flirt with 80…

One extreme to the other… That’s Kentucky Weather (and I’m not just talking about ne on twitter ;))

Make it a great Monday and take care.
