Good evening, folks. The rain is finally rolling east of the bluegrass state, leaving us with a chilly wind from the northwest. This is a drying wind that will carry us through the upcoming weekend, with out and out cold winds arriving next week. That could even bring a touch of winter.

Here’s regional radar to track the rain out of the east…

Skies will be mainly clear on Friday and that carries us through Sunday. Highs Friday and Saturday reach the upper 40s to low 50s, with the 50s taking over on Sunday.

Overnight lows this weekend will drop deep into the 20s…

With a lot of VERY early buds and blooms showing up, use your best judgement, green thumbs.

Another cold front arrives Monday with an increase in showers and thunderstorms. Temps should hit 60 ahead of the front, then come crashing down behind it. The big question is… Can we get a storm system to cut off across the region? The GFS continues to advertise this, giving us rain and snow…

The temperature pattern continues to look colder than normal next week, with more of a back and forth taking shape the following week. The GFS Ensembles suggest some additional chances for flakes through the middle of March…

Enjoy your evening and take care.
