Good Thursday and welcome to the month of March. The 3rd month of the year is roaring in like a lion with showers and thunderstorms, gusty winds and a late day temperature drop. Hang in there, some better weather is on the way for the weekend.

Today’s weather is nothing like one year ago today, as damaging winds and tornadoes were causing major issues across the state. Still, the potential is there for some local high water issues, especially across southern parts of the state.

Track away…

Winds this afternoon and evening may approach 40mph in gusts, with colder air settling in from the northwest. That could even spawn a flurry or two across the mountains of eastern Kentucky.

Friday looks much better with sunshine returning and temps in the upper 40s to low 50s.

Lows this weekend drop into the 20s, but our afternoons look really good. Sunshine will fill the sky with highs in the low 50s Saturday and mid and upper 50s for Sunday.

Another cold front then slams in here on Monday, bringing a much colder pattern for the first full week of March. The GFS continues to take on a wintry look…

Highs may stay in the 30s for a few days…

Ummm… No thanks. 🙁

I will update things later today, so check back. Have a great Thursday and take care.
