Good Tuesday everyone and thanks for checking out the blog on these awesome weather days. Monday was nothing short of amazing and the next few days look to be just as nice before some changes kick in for the upcoming weekend. Those changes should take us toward a much cooler second half to April. You really didn’t think it would stay like this forever… or did you? 
Here is how things are shaping up…
– A few mid to upper level clouds will roll in here today as a weak front moves our way from the north and northeast. Highs will remain warm with upper 70s to around 80.
– Wednesday should see temps come back a few degrees… but it will still be very nice.
– Thursday looks to be the warmest of the bunch with lower 80s.
– A strong cold front digs in here late in the day Friday and will bring an end to our nice stretch of weather. Showers and thunderstorms will develop along and ahead of this front and move in from northwest to southeast. You can see that here on the GFS for Friday afternoon and evening…
Let’s hope this front has plenty of showers and storms with it because we REALLY need the rain around here!
Behind the front… temps will come way down for the weekend. Highs will likely be in the 60-65 degree range from Saturday into Monday of next week. There will also be a frost threat by Sunday or Monday morning if we can get clear skies.
That’s all you guys get this go around. Have a great Tuesday and take care.
We definitely do need the rain.
Interesting stat. for you though:
At Lexington, using averages: March, May, June, July, and August ALL average more rainfall than April. Strange to think of April as one of our driest months, isn’t it? So there is hope..
Hoping that we get the needed rain fall because I love my garden.
I saw where April is going to end a little cooler than we’ve seen lately. What’s the swimming pool forecast? When can we get these pools going and start enjoying some warmer temps and warm water?? Love the blog!!
Chris I remember you mentioning a la nina pattern possibly setting up which leads to a warmer summer. Will this also mean a drier summer as well?
THEY’RE LOOTING THE FOOD KING!!!!!!
I heard Bill Meck on the Kruser show today. Bill said Lexington has had only 3 inches of rain since February 1. That is dry!!
And not I’m off to water my flowerbeds. 🙂
How strong can we look for these storms to be on friday?
