Good evening, folks. Today’s surge of nice weather is just what the weather doctor ordered. How long can we keep this rolling? The simple answer is… Not much longer. Old Man Winter is not going quietly into the night. Wah Wah!

The system rolling in here for Friday and Saturday continues to slow down just a bit. That should give us some bonus dry weather across the central and east on Friday. Showers and some thunderstorms will rumble into the west, and those roll across the rest of the state into Saturday…

There’s an outside chance for a strong storm to pop along and ahead of that low. That same low will also bring a healthy temperature gradient from north to south. The farther south and west, the milder those temps will be through Sunday. Speaking of Sunday, it looks like a pretty decent weather day, right now.

A strong southwesterly flow develops on Friday with temps having a shot at spiking to 70. This is ahead of a more potent storm system, crossing the Ohio Valley. A few strong thunderstorms may be noted ahead of this, with the potential for snow behind it by Tuesday and Wednesday…

That’s a lot of cold air surging back in here for the middle and end of next week…

We are likely to see this setup repeat itself a time or two before March is finished. True spring continues to be a pipe dream at the moment.

Enjoy the evening and take care.
