Good Monday, everyone. On this Memorial Day, we honor the men and women who have given the ultimate sacrifice to this amazing country we live in. That’s something we should never take for granted. Many mark this day by visiting cemeteries or memorials, while others hold family gatherings or attend parades. Regardless of which camp you fall under, you will need to be on guard for a few storms.
Today’s storm’s shouldn’t be as widespread as what we had on Sunday, but a few clusters of storms may work in from northwest to southeast. Some of these storms may be strong or severe. Here’s today’s Severe Weather Outlook from the Storm Prediction Center…
Outside of the storms, temps are back into the 85-90 degree range and that that trend holds true for a few more days. A couple of cold fronts appear to be ticketed for our region later this week into the weekend. Watch how the shower and storm action looks to ramp up during this time…
Temps will come down as we head into the first week of June.
Let’s get back to where we are today and that’s watching some boomers. Here are your tracking tools for the day…

Have a great day and take care.
Thanks Chris for that nice tribute to Memorial Day. I always read the poem ” On Flanders Field where Poppies Grow ” it is a very moving poem for Memorial Day.
We had a decent rain shower yesterday afternoon and probably have the same later today. We really needed the showers and more so for the farmers and gardeners.
Its been 2 weeks since I have had anymore than a tenth of an inch of rainfall and 6 of the last 9 days have been 90+ degrees.
It really hasn’t been wetter than average since early March either down our way. Looks mostly dry until next weekend too.
We have had 4 days with at least 1/3 of an inch of rain in the past 10, and still no dry weekends since St. Patrick’s Day. Looks like Wednesday and (as usual) Thursday will be more of the same.
At least the tornadoes are staying up in Ohio and way out to the West.
